iPhone内置多项隐藏的键盘快捷方式，可显著提升用户的文本输入和编辑效率。[1]这些功能通常被收纳在设置菜单中，容易被用户忽略。[1]
用户可启用Quickpath功能通过在屏幕上滑动手指而非逐个点按来输入文字。[1]该功能需在"设置">"通用">"键盘"菜单中打开"Slide to Type"选项方可激活。[1]此外，按住空格键直至字母消失，键盘可转换为触控板，用于精确移动光标。[1]
在文本编辑方面，用户可通过三根手指捏合已选中的文本来复制，[1]用三根手指张开来粘贴文本。[1]需要注意的是，某些功能在iMessage或WhatsApp等聊天应用中仅支持对选中文本进行操作，而不支持反选。[1]
AP News has highlighted several built-in iPhone features designed to streamline text input, many of which remain unknown to casual users [1]. These capabilities, often buried within the device's settings menu, can significantly enhance typing speed and precision across messaging and note-taking applications.
The Quickpath feature allows users to input text by sliding their finger across the keyboard screen rather than tapping individual letters [1]. To activate this functionality, users should navigate to Settings > General > Keyboard and enable the "Slide to Type" option [1]. Beyond text entry, the keyboard itself can be transformed into a trackpad by pressing and holding the spacebar until the letter keys disappear, enabling more precise cursor positioning [1].
For text manipulation, iPhone offers gesture-based copying and pasting commands [1]. Pinching together with three fingers on selected text copies it to the clipboard, while spreading three fingers apart pastes content from the clipboard [1]. However, certain messaging applications such as iMessage and WhatsApp restrict these three-finger gestures to work only with highlighted text [1].
