Note that the inability to select text using “double tap-hold” (i.e. the tap-and-half gesture) isn’t actually a new problem, but I think I can just fix both in this patch.

still reproducible on iOS 13.5.1 can you clarify on which iOS this fix will land?

(In reply to Roman K from comment #7) > still reproducible on iOS 13.5.1 > can you clarify on which iOS this fix will land? Apple doesn't comment on the content or timing of future software updates.
