What Happened to "Select all"?

Hopefully that shows up...


Ever since I got iOS 9.2, I haven't been able to select all of any text except for in areas where I can type. If I wanted to copy something like a paragraph off of a website, it does not give me the option to select all and copy it. Is it supposed to be this way, or is it a big...

iPhone 5s, iOS 9.2

No, it is not a bug. The only time you will see select all is in a context where the content is editable or contained within a limited parameter. In the case of a website, select all would not - even if it were available - select just the paragraph. It would select the entire page. You will need to select a word and expand the selection using the handles.
