Which app?

Does your girlfrind need a terminal on her phone?

>tapping doesn't move the cursor but instead selects words (I think that's it);

Tab and hold to move the cursor.

>she's stuck using Safari and seeing ads. So, so many ads. Ads everywhere.

Why she doesn't install an Adblocker? It's officially supported directly by the system since a couple of time.



> Which app?

Signal. She has similar issues with other apps. Apparently iOS doesn't support background processes as well as Android.

> Does your girlfrind need a terminal on her phone?

Need? No. But I'd like it.

> Tab and hold to move the cursor.

This is reversed between Android & iOS. For me, at least, I'm far more likely to want to move the cursor than to select a word.
