Since I do my work half-and-half on my Mac and my iPad, it will probably keep me from using Final Draft as my main editor. I have to say, the desktop version, much pricier, has none of these problems. For me, it makes the mobile version almost unusable. I've contacted Final Draft support about this. It just moves the cursor without any highlight. The workaround would be to shift-click-drag, but that doesn't work either. The cursor just moves to the other end, with no highlighting. It works on every editing app I've ever used. The way I usually do it is to click at one end of the selection, then shift-click at the other end. A much worse behavior is in trying to highlight a section of text. If I start typing it acts as if the cursor was actually to the right of the period, so it's kind of okay. When I click after the last sentence in a dialogue section, the blinking line appears to the left of the period.
On my iPad Pro (2020), I'm getting weird cursor behavior with Final Draft Mobile. We constantly strive to make our app better and better, as the industry standard.
