In the ibooks app I can't select text more than one paragraph. I tried everything, reset the app settings, changed books, and everything is the same. On iPad pro 2024 and iPhone 15 pro maxhttps://youtube.com/shorts/uqWD6NRwNA8?si=dKzToPaV3xRzHTLr

You're not alone in experiencing this issue. Many users have reported that after updating to iPadOS 18.3, the ability to select multiple paragraphs in the Apple Books app has been affected. It appears that selections beyond a single paragraph are no longer functioning as they did in previous versions.


This seems to be a change introduced in the latest update, and unfortunately, there isn't a known workaround at this time. It's advisable to provide feedback to Apple so they are aware of the impact this has on users.​
