I turned off autocorrect a year ago. It’s easier to correct typos by tapping them than have to proof read for whatever properly typed word Apple changed for no reason.

The original iPhone had a much nicer cursor behavior and placement was easier with a tap or a hold-and-drag than it is to this day. I forget when this changed, I think it was about a decade ago.

Tap and hold on the spacebar works pretty great for cursor placement.
Thank you. This works so much better that tapping on the word to place the cursor.
Thanks, I didn't know that was a thing.
