Text editing on mobile isn’t ok

It’s great until you need to move the cursor downward.

Actually I just discovered the spacebar trick thanks to the parent comment and... I can move up and down in a block of text by using the same method.

Maybe I don't understand what you mean?

You can move the cursor up maybe 10 lines from where you start before going off the edge of the keyboard.

Now try moving down 10 lines from where you start. Hopefully you will see the issue with starting from the spacebar at the bottom edge of the screen.

Ah ok, thanks - I experimented with a iPhone note and did not go very far, actually.
