Question

How do I cut and paste on my iPhone?

Community Answer

Press the word and hold your finger there. After a while, the text you wish to copy/cut will be highlighted. Use the sliders at the side to adjust how much you want to be highlighted. Release your finger. There should be a word 'cut,' 'copy,' or scissors icon above. Click it, and it is copied onto your clipboard. To paste, press and hold on a text area, then release your finger. Select the pop up that says 'paste.'

When cutting and pasting, where is the cut section stored?

Community Answer

It is stored in an area known as "The Clipboard." There is no true way to access the clipboard, so to find out what you cut, just go to a word document and press Ctrl + V
