15 Hidden New Features Tucked Away In iOS 9

The Keyboard Doubles As A Trackpad (iPad only)

When you’re trying to edit a big ol’ wall of text, placing the cursor in just the right place can be a total pain — particularly for those who’ve spent years relying on the precision of a mouse or trackpad.

 

iOS 9 turns the keyboard into a trackpad, if you touch it just right. The trick? Place two fingers, side by side, on the keyboard and swipe around as if it were a trackpad; the keyboard will go blank, and you’ll gain a whole new method of input.

 

Alas, this only officially works on the iPad; while some of the iOS 9 betas had iPhone keyboardpad support, it hasn’t been announced whether or not it’ll make the cut in the final release.
