Purpose of the app
You are using your smartphone. You want to copy something on the screen. You try to long press the text and copy that but you can't do it. This app takes that pain away. It allows you to select and copy text from the screen that you can't do with Android's default long press.
Download
You can search "Universal Copy" on the play store or click the following button to download
or scan the following QR code from your phone if you are viewing this on PC.
Usage

3. A notification will appear in the notification shade.

Other Features and Options
1. By default when you enable copy mode, there is a bar at the top. If you feel that the bar hides the text that you want to copy, you can
enable full-screen mode to hide that bar.
2. When the copy mode is activated, you can tap the text to select it, double tap to copy and long press to edit. However, you can
change the functions of double tap and long press.
3. By default, you can enable copy mode from the notification in the notification shade but you can also
enable the copy mode by long pressing some specified buttons (includes: back button, volume buttons,...). You can also
disable the notification.
3. The app also has an
OCR Mode which is
not free. When there is some text on the screen that can not be directly copied, optical character recognition can be applied to an image of the screen to extract the text. If you
do not want to pay for this feature, you can
take a screenshot of the screen and
apply OCR to it using this free app.
