Thank you, I had seen the option to “select all” appear occasionally, but I never understood how I made it appear in the menu! This information is a lifesaver! God Bless! ❤️

Nice video. Was wondering how to select all in notes and use the speak option to read the note. Any ideas how to do this.

This only helps you to copy all the text quickly. Which is still useful, but doesn’t help if you want to select all the text for any of purpose.

In the app Pages if you long press it appears select all

You’d think they’d fix this but nah what a joke of a company

I want to select all and delete, how do you do that?

Apple as always...making it incredibly unintuitive lol Great job on the video though!

[Muammar.Younis]

Apple should go to hell just simply add select all rather then that

but HOW TO —Select All— & CUT ??? 🤔

This does not work. When looking at all my notes and I tap one, it goes to that note ONLY. No apparent way to 3 tap and select all notes.

Seriously! Do they sit around at Apple trying to make things hard ? @apple
Far out the pain this caused people and you have to do a work around like this.

I do get the occasional select all so there must be something more to this but I guess it’s a work around. Very ugly work around however. If you want to cut a part of the text this won’t work.

The bull shit in great Apple. The simplest thing in android is not avilable in apple ? Really annoying.
