IOs Cordova long-press shows text-select magnifying glass even with text-selection disabled, how to remove?

Thank you for that Automatico! Saved me from a lot more frustration.

Since then however it looks like that code has been merged into mainline cordova and can just be enabled by adding

<preference name="SuppressesLongPressGesture" value="true" /> to config.xml

That worked perfectly for me!

Here is the commit and notes that brought it in

Apparently, in iOS 9 there is a bug which makes the -webkit-user-select: none; not work. There is a plugin which fixes this
