iPhone SwipeSelection....a must have

[EvilQueen]

Might have been covered, might be well known, but I didn't know about it till this latest jailbreak.

Best thing it does...allows you to move the cursor in your text by simply swiping around on the keyboard. Had to explain, but try it. Getting the cursor into the right place in the middle of a text to add a word is a PITA in iOS especially if you have fat fingers or have a case like a otter box. This makes it so much nicer.

This is the single one thing I really miss from being jailbroken. I may have to JB again...

Brilliant tweak saw it on Idb and got it right away

Completely agree. SwipeSelection is a good companion with ShowCase.

Also highly recommended is the commercial "Pro" version. I've posted quite a lot on it in another thread here.

Swype selection is great, i have been using it for a few days now, and thanks for the showcase tip, it is great to.

With the main improvements in iOS 7, SwipeSelection is the reason i jailbreak.

Of course I do take advantage of a lot of other great tweaks.

soon to be included in iOS 8...

I've tried swipe selection twice on my phone. Must just be how I type or use the keyboard but I find that the cursor often ends up lines away from where I'm typing. Like it's picking up inputs that I'm not choosing to make. But people rave about the app so I must be the weirdo

You must drag your fingers across the keyboard slightly when you type... it works absolutely fine

Just found out about this tweak recently. Can't believe I lived without it before.

 

[gotluck]

Yes it's awesome

 

[NovemberWhiskey]

Nice when it works, but I have found that it messes with normal typing occasionally.

SwipeSelection....a must have

Just got this and I must say I can't believe I ever went without a tweak like this.

I like the tweak too. Sometime when I type too fast I'd drag the screen so a letter jumps in a previous word.

You Just have to get used to it, is like at first the keyboard in the screen it was really difficult to type and now nobody even mention it
