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.
Copy the message when the box pops up with the copied message, tap on that and you can then edit it further.
If your phone doesn’t do that then it’s time to custom ROM or get a new one
