Hi,
To add to that, what one might think of as a context menu is more typically
found on the iPad, as opposed to the iPhone, since the iPad screen is
larger, therefore more realistate is available to the user.

Subject: Re: Context Menu on the iPhone?

The equivalent to a context menu for an element is typically activated by
double tapping and holding, but this is neither universal nor as ubiquitous
as you'd find on desktop operating systems. To select all; move through the
rotor until you get to "edit" then flick up until you reach select all. You
can then double tap to select and delete or replace as you like.

Somehow it is probably activated by tapping once and then holding but I
could be wrong.  I am also wondering how to do a "select all" in an edit
field.  The other day, I used Siri for text dictation and could have really
used a "select all and delete" command on my iPhone.  I had dictated a text
in English, but I had neglected to switch Siri to understand English.  It
took me forever to delete the text since I could only delete one character
at a time.
