Minds are being blown all over the internet after a simple hack was revealed on iPhones that puts an end to fat thumb syndrome.

We've all been there - we're five lines into typing out a message and realise there's a mistake right back up at the top. But getting the cursor to the exact point of the error to put it right requires the kind of skill a professional codebreaker can only dream of.

No more.

It turns out the humble spacebar holds the key to quick and accurate cursor-dragging. All you need to do is hold it down for a couple of seconds and it enables you to drag and drop it anywhere on the message and put right any wrongs.

You can watch the hack being demonstrated in the video above.

While people are getting their heads around this little trick now, it's believed it's been in place since the iOS 11 update on iPhones, which came in in September 2017.
