Platform specific text selection handle #11148

Closed

Description

@alardizabal

The current TextFormField text selection handle is Android-inspired. It would make the experience feel more native if on iOS, the text selection handle appeared as in the below screenshot... The handles visually are most noticeable, but the cut/copy/paste, etc. options, if made to look more native as well, would be even better.

    #9507 is actually needed to submit this fix too. Since collapsed selections in iOS just shows a cursor bar with no draggable handle like Android, it would be too difficult to move the cursor around without the long-press to show magnifier affordance.

    There's a number of follow-up polish for text selection for both platforms opened in:
    #11274, #11261, #11254, #9507

    But this main issue is complete
