It’s weird that we’re almost in 2024 and you still have to copy a message to a notes app so you can pick the relevant parts to copy.

Unless I’m missing something? The texting apps I use for the most part are WhatsApp and Google Messages for SMS.

I don’t copy stuff from these apps on a regular basis, but it would’ve been nice to have the option to copy just what I want. It’s especially annoying when you receive an authentication code of some sort in the Google Messages but you can’t just copy the code directly.

    I once had a keyboard app that also copied OTPs automatically, could’ve been GBoard, it doesn’t seem like a universal feature since SwiftKey doesn’t have it in my case.

    Edit: I misunderstood your comment, most apps that I use that send out codes do log them in automatically if they’re open, so I have to manually copy a code only if I’m on a website.
