Can’t drag cursor in text on iOS 18

Just upgraded from an XS to an 11 pro; and loaded up with iOS 18. Now when typing text in any field or app; the press and hold feature to navigate thru text is gone. Not sure if this is something that can be turned back on but also reading of other users with the same issue. Please re add back into future updates if it’s gone. Super handy feature.

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 18
