Hello, I am having trouble with the native notes app. I thought that it was supposed to be much better after the new upgrade. If I write a note and then I want to delete part of the note, I have trouble getting my voiceover cursor to tell me where it is, and to maintain focus so I can hit the

Can you explain a bit more what happens? Notes works the same as any other app as far as editing text goes; are you running into problems across the rest of iOS9? If not, what is going on in Notes specifically that's giving you trouble? > On Sep 26, 2015, at 15:26, Nancy Badger
