Hey,

when you type something (in notes, messages Etc) and you want to change a letter in a previous word or sentence, since 3D Touch you can just hard press on the keyboard and move to the word or sentence.
I noticed in iOS 9 that sometimes the hard press doesn't work. I need to pull my finger and try it again to get it work.
Besides, Sometimes I need to press very hard till I get in the cursor mode.

Does anyone else notice this and is it fixed in iOS 10?

Thanks!

I need to push REALLY hard (to a degree I'm afraid of damaging the device) now even if my 3D Touch setting is set to the lightest press.

It was fixed in developer beta 1, I didn't have the problem at all. But in beta 2/pb the behaviour has reverted back. Hopefully gets fixed next release.
Wow thats bad, I was hoping that this most used 3D touch feature will finally work as intended. Please developers, do post this bug.

You do know the cursor only moves when it's flashing right? If you try to move it straight after moving it, you need to wait to it starts flashing again before it works

Well, once the keyboard is opened, it should work ...

In ios 10 Beta 1 :
It is very much improved actually works I believe the way it was intended. You don't really have to let it blink to move again but there is a slight delay to move it again.

I had hoped this was a real improvement

Now you want to say it's the same as in iOS9 ?

I never knew that nor noticed. It helps a lot with iOS 9. Thanks!
