Swipe gesture in keyboard to maneuver through text to fix error?

[Boba7523]

Hi guys,

Is there an android app similar to "SwipeSelection" (SwipeSelection - Cydia App Review - EDIT YOUR TEXT EASIER! - YouTube) that allows users to use swipe gestures in the keyboard to maneuver his way through text in to fix error?

I'm new to Android, and when i type and see an error, I have to use my finger and maneuver to the error. I find this cumbersome as sometimes it's inaccurate. It'd be better if I could just swipe left/right my keyboard to move around my text.

Depends in the keyboard you are using. Some keyboards have arrow keys to help move around.

Do you know which keyboards have that? I'm currently using SwiftKey

SwiftKey has arrows. Press the number button, then the symbol key.

i wish a mod could be made to swipe any keyboard left and right.. the arrow isn't as intuitive....

Why are we not using the Spen for this? In your text field the pointer will turn into a cursor. You can pinpoint the error and tap right into the spot you need to edit.
