This Excellent Tool Copies Text In Areas That Normally Don’t Let You Copy [1]
Most of us are familiar with touchscreens on our phones and we can use press and hold to perform a right-click action such as copy and paste text.
To copy a paragraph, we can touch and hold a word, then drag the set of bounding handles to highlight all the text needed before we tap Copy from the pop-up context menu.
This generally works well in most content in a browser or in an app but there are exceptions.
We can't copy text easily on the screen from some apps like Google News [3] and Play Books [4] that have disabled copying of text, and we can feel really frustrated when we can't take a snippet of text but have to type it out all over again.
That’s not the end of the road. This excellent tool Universal Copy [5] takes only a few steps to bypass the restriction and allows you to access and copy text displayed on the screen, using Android’s built-in Accessibility Services.
Try it out and see if it works for you, too.
