Android mark text, move cursor, copy & paste by hand: I still don't get it...

[KMatle]

After all these years having an Android device I'm still not able to mark a text and/or move the cursor properly. Maybe I'm still too dump. When I try to move the cursor just ONE char, I screw the whole thing up.

To move the cursor only by one character, you can use the space key, simply slide your finger left or right.
It works with the Google keyboard.

I only got there with some devices, but in most cases it is not possible.

They couldn't figure out if it depended on the sensitivity of the touchscreen or the firmware
