Additional information
Screen recordings: Bug - iOS - Incorrect text selection (https://drive.proton.me/urls/GE47F9ZPZ4#jwHYHhxNqnmT). I can upload them here if needed, but the instructions said to upload elsewhere and share a link.
In the recordings, I first do it a bit slower and I can achieve the expected behaviour. If I do it too quickly, the issue occurs.
The same happens when I use the blue handles (aka “grab points”).
I think it could be related to the changes around “iOS: Fixed triple-tap at the end of a paragraph not selecting the paragraph.”
I think some timings may have changed, and now I’m running into this very frequently, which I wasn’t before v1.13.4.
