Vejas:

You can add "text selection" to your rotor in VoiceOver settings. Then rotor
to text selection using either the roter gesture (if you are just using your
phone) or space with 2 and 3 or 5 and 6 (if using a Braille display.)
Flicking right or pressing space+dot 4 will select text, and flicking left
or right or pressing space with dot 3 or dot 6 will change the amount of
text being selected--select by character, select by word, select by line,
etc.

Hope this helps,

Chris

Subject: [nabs-l] Problems When Selecting Text, Iphone 6

Hi All,
I am having problems selecting text on the iphone 6. I use my braillenote
Apex as a keyboard. The command to select text is dots 2356 space. While I
am still able to use this command, it takes multiple attempts for the select
all to work. I was wondering if there is a way which  I could select text
manually, without the keyboard, or if there is a menu I can get into to
select text.
Thanks,
Vejas
