Cut-Copy_Paste on iPhone (Proof of Concept)
Surveyers say that iPhone owners about what is on the top of their wishlist which Apple had put in their new device, one of the most popular responses was “copy and paste.”
That’s an understandable request and now an enterprising fellow who goes by the moniker Lonely Sandwich has hacked together a video showing Apple exactly how he thinks copy and paste should work.
While Apple hasn’t said anything about adding such features, that didn’t stop a user by the name of lonelysandwich from creating the fake “proof-of-concept” video embedded above.
Lonelysandwich’s video makes hilarious use of the iPhone promo spots, but the method itself seems a little awkward. To my thinking, Apple would be better off using a finger drag for selecting, though I can see where it would be difficult to determine if the drag was intended to select or just move the loupe.
But the clipboard “okay” screen and the pasting method in the video make perfect sense and fit well with the rest of the iPhone’s interface.
