About Copy (Text & Screenshots)

Copy (almost) any text on the screen and share screenshots with two taps!

1. Open the settings and set Copy as the default assist app.
2. Long-press the home button to activate Copy on any screen.
3. Tap on highlighted text to copy it. Long-press to share. Tap the button to share the screenshot.

Completely free. No ads. Zero permissions. ????

*PLEASE READ*

1. Apps can prevent Copy from accessing the screen. For example, when DRM protected media is playing (Netflix) or the app has been flagged as 'secure' (banking apps).

2. Copy works by analyzing the apps' layout. Some apps report wrong layout information which might cause some text to be not copy-able, misaligned text boxes and overlapping text boxes.

3. Some device manufacturers overwrite the default behavior of the Home button long-press action, which causes Copy to not show up. In that case, please check the Settings of your device. For example, the long-press action on OnePlus phones can be changed at Settings > Buttons > Home Button > Long Press Action.

4. Copy replaces Google Now on Tap / Google Assistant but you can switch back at any time. Simply open the assist settings again and select the Google app. There can only be one assist app set at a time. This is a limitation of Android. If Copy is not set as the default assist app, it cannot access the screen contents.

5. Some devices running Android 7.0 and newer have a bug that breaks the assistant functionality after a reboot. If your device is affected, you have to open the assist settings after rebooting your device. Simply opening the settings will re-enable Copy. As far as I am aware, all assist apps are affected by this bug, with the exception of the Google app.

6. Screenshots taken by Copy do not contain system UI elements and are not detected by apps like Snapchat.

Hi weberdo, This is the best utility app I have ever used. Thanks that you shared the app that was developed for your own needs. Hats off for the gem you created. Lovely. It did the job in seconds. I was able to copy courier number in badly developed firstcry application to track my courier. Best Regards

Exactly what I was looking for ever since now on tap changed to Google assistant. If you add a search feature where you can search directly on Google/Chrome ???????? it would be the best app in my phone. Love it can't recommend it enough.

Thank you, this app is fantastic ! Having to deal with ADHD daily, your app helps me to go back and finish my task and find what I'm seeking by visually locating it, not having to re-read descriptions. Saves so much time for me. I've done this on my own for so long, I praise you for hopefully making things easier for others like me, struggling to get tasks done. I can't say enough good things about it yet to do it justice, amazing is all for now. Bless you and your work ! Much love from this little lost Cajun !!

This app is very useful, though, I have one thing to say that I would like you to implement/change; the app could have another way of having some other shortcut binds, other than the Google Assistant, which I personally use. Other than that, a bit of bugs which I immediately found using the app; it wants to create and copy false objects that are not really on the screen. But other than that, I think the app is great, but not for my personal use, I think it needs some more work, but keep it up!

Only work for some time. Then I need to enable it again. Very annoying...

X70%
by X####:

Good idea but….. Very unusabe ! it clusters every single text together and when copying or sending texts no 1 needs every single word. The developer said he will not include Advanced features for editing, as in the option to select only the text you want or need? Huh? big mistake. even freeThis app will never grow and will become out dated falling behind Universal Copy and others. I guarantee this developer abandons this app in a few months. The app is too basic (and did i mention unusable ) ppl will lose interest fast, good luck buddy!

Don't work Edit, i did all it says, granted permission and do all it says but when i long press on the home button it just shows google and greenify. I'm sure that the app was working and was not forced stop.

Can you at least make a shortcut activity for the copy function of the app, that any other application can access. That way I can use another app, like tasker or gravity box to enable the same functionality from a different shortcut. Pretty please!

Very good app the only problem is that I can't copy individual words out of text. Could you please add this function to the app? I would appreciate it. Thanks

Nice app but I would appreciate it with 5 stars if there was a save button to save the screenshot directly to the gallery before sharing it. I hope the developer will do the needful.
