VimKey-arrow – Precise iPhone cursor control using HJKL navigation

Summary: VimKey-arrow is a system-wide iOS keyboard extension that enables precise cursor movement using Vim-style HJKL keybindings. It allows character- and line-level navigation, text selection, and clipboard operations across apps, improving text editing accuracy on iPhones.

What it does

It replaces the iOS magnifying glass cursor control with HJKL keys for moving the cursor and selecting text. Vertical navigation works best with hard line breaks, while horizontal navigation suits wrapped text.

Who it's for

Developers and users who edit code, markdown, or structured text on iPhones and want efficient, precise cursor control.

Why it matters

It solves the imprecision of native iOS cursor placement, enhancing text editing accuracy and speed on mobile devices.
