Hi, It also works flawlessly on my iPhone 4.
Just to let you know the problem is likely on your device. Ron & Danvers Falling down is part of LIFE...

I know this doesn't answer your question, but at least you know that this does not seem to be an issue others experience since nobody has posted about it that I can remember. The increased touch screen sensitivity is an issue in some situations and I wonder if maybe your gesture is misinterpreted in some way. I recommend you try and do the gesture in the practice area (start it with a 4-finger double tap). The action rotor is only in the rotor when it is being used and it appears and disappears automatically. You typically don't have to manually turn the rotor to the Action setting since it is selected by default if, for example, you open the mail app, the Messages app, in the list of Podcasts in Downcast, the list of Books or parts of books in the Audible app etc. You can always delete text messages by double tapping on the Edit button at the top left of the main screen in the Messages app, it becomes a "Done" button and until you tap on Done there will be a delete switch to the left of each text message. As for Containers, they have very little to do with hell since they do not contain water in this case which might be useful in such a hot place. What they are are areas on the screen which contain certain types of information. For example, if you open an email in the mail app, the email header is a container, the body of the email is in another container and the buttons along the bottom like Mark, Delete, Reply etc. are yet a third container. Containers have been present on the iPad for some time and as of iOS 7 are also used on the iPhone. If you turn the rotor to containers in my email example, you can swipe between email header, body and the buttons along the bottom with just a few swipes.

I go and flick down on delete, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Another concerning issue in the roter, I see stuff like characters, words, and sometimes I get actions, sometimes I don't. There is another thing called containers? What the hell is a container? How should I delete these text messages? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
