How to delete text without using the keyboard
Today we bring you one of our tutorials for iPhone and iPad, with which you can get the most out of your iOS devices.
When we type with the iPhone or iPad, we may sometimes make a mistake. For example, it may be the case that after writing a long text, we realize that the content was not for the person we are writing to. At that moment, what we do is eliminate word by word with the delete button on the keyboard. A tedious process when the writing is quite extensive.
So that this doesn't happen to us, on iPhone we have the option to undo text that uses the device's motion sensor. Just by shaking our iPhone, we can delete all the text we have written. We tell you how to use it.
