Copy and paste text with Drag & Drop

  1. Select the text you want to copy, both full texts and sentences. To do this, double tap on the text and move the selector.
  2. Now press hard / long on the text (3D Touch or Haptic Touch).
  3. When you have selected it, without releasing it, slide it up (swype up).
  4. Now with the other hand you can navigate iOS, both using the bottom bar and going to the application you want, without dropping the text.
  5. Now choose the text box of the application you want and when the icon (+) appears in green, release it

That's how easy you can copy and paste text between different applications.

Download multiple photos from Safari

This seems to me without a doubt one of the great functionalities, and it is that you will be able to download as many photos as you want from Safari without having to download them one by one.

  1. Go to Google Images and find what you want. To do this, make a strong/long press on the photograph (3D Touch or Haptic Touch).
