On iPhone, you can cut (gesture) with Three-finger double pinch. Pinch in twice with three fingers to cut the selection. It sits in the Text Editing Gestures group and is one of the iPhone shortcuts people look up most, so it is worth committing to memory — it works the same way across almost every app that follows standard iPhone conventions.
Open the app or screen where you want to cut (gesture).
Press Three-finger double pinch.
