On Android, you can cut text with Long-press → Cut. Select text, then tap Cut in the pop-up menu. It sits in the Text & Typing group and is one of the Android shortcuts people look up most, so it is worth committing to memory — it works the same way across almost every app that follows standard Android conventions.
Open the app or screen where you want to cut text.
Press Long-press → Cut.
Select text, then tap Cut in the pop-up menu.
