Update to ios 14. You can’t move the cursor around anymore. It’s like impossible to even get the cursor independent and not highlighting whatever word is first touched. No more pin wheels to adjust time for alarms, have to manually enter time from keypad. Apple has become lame. It’s a ‘remove the good stuff’ kinda company now and it is pretty well awful.

I get it, editing in the middle of a paragraph can be challenging.
If the method of tapping where you want the cursor isn't working.. try this, when you want to bring the cursor back to a certain spot and make a correction.. tap and hold the spacebar. You'll see all the key labels disappear and the cursor will start to float. You can then drag your finger around over the keyboard like a trackpad and precisely drop the cursor where you want it.

Ok so how do I get the cursor to precisely one place in a paragraph without it first highlighting a word? To get it to un-highlight a word I have to drag one dot of highlighted word over to the other end and then my cursor will be free but it’s extremely challenging. Thanks
So having trouble moving the cursor and technical changes to IOS don’t count as technical problems?

so as the email told you.. there is a link for feedback.
This is a technical support forum, not a rant forum.
You are not talking to Apple here, so therefore your post wasn't removed because you 'insulted Apple's intelligence'.
You don't appear to have a technical support question.. so your post might once again be removed.
As far as the cursor goes, you can tap and hold the spacebar to place it wherever you want to. It's pretty slick.
The alarms.. you can still access a wheel, but it's not as large or as convenient.
I've seen others complain about this too, which I personally don't understand. I know you get used to what you're used to, but how could entering the exact time be so much more difficult than spinning some wheels?
If you're so displeased with your iPhone and/or iOS updates, get a phone that better suits your needs.. Or send your feedback to the proper channel
not the way you presented it.. you didn't ask a single question.
Even though you didn't ask a question, I made a suggestion to your cursor issue.
The spacebar float is a very cool trick. Thank you.
no problem at all, glad to be of help!
