Many of us face the struggle in terms of errors while typing the text. Well, your tussle ends here! Apple brought an easier way to edit your text by using the iPhone keyboard as a trackpad.
In this mode, your finger can directly control the position of the text cursor. This makes it uncomplicated to enter or delete characters into the current text field more accurately.

Steps to avail iPhone keyboard as a trackpad:
- When you are typing text, press and hold the spacebar and you will see the keyboard turning blank
- Drag your finger around to move your cursor through the text
- When the cursor is where you want it to be, just let go of the cursor.
Users can also tap and hold the cursor by themselves to move it around. But if you will apply force on the virtual trackpad, you will begin selection from the current position of the cursor which means you can select the entire paragraph or sentence without releasing your finger. Whereas, it will end when you will decrease the pressure.
This trackpad function will work with any text box, as long as you are using iPhone’s default keyboard. Also, this method of the iPhone is only available on iPhone 6S or later models.
