It doesn't work for me, either. I wonder what we're missing…


These are the instructions for Text in Markup on this page:

Use Markup to add text, shapes, stickers, and more to documents on iPhone – Apple Support (UK)


Add text

    1. In a supported app, tap  or Markup.
    2. In the Markup toolbar, tap , then tap Add Text.
    3. Tap the text box, then use the keyboard to enter text.
    4. To adjust the text’s font, size, justification, style, or color, tap the tools at the bottom of the screen.
    5. To cut, copy, duplicate, or delete the text box, tap .
    6. When you’re done, tap outside the text box.
    7. To close the Markup toolbar, tap  or Done.


I bolded the relevant text. But I tried, and I can't get to the tools while the text is active. Let's let Apple know by leaving feedback here:

Of course, it may be that we are both missing something obvious…
