Microsoft OneNote app iPad Air 13 text select and highlight issues as of 2/3/26

I have been having issues highlighting text in Microsoft OneNote app since 2/3/26 using an iPad Air 13. I am able to select one word in paragraph but not drag (with finger or Apple Pen) to highlight sentences like I was able to do the day prior. The issue occurs in OneNote while on the Home tab (not Draw), and that it reproduces on both a work account and a personal account. I have tried OneNote on PC, browser on iPad, iPhone, and it highlight selects and copies as well.


I am able to highlight and copy text in any other app (Word), browser, texts, notes app, etc.

iPad Air, iPadOS 26
