The Instructure Community will enter a read-only state on November 22, 2025 as we prepare to migrate to our new Community platform in early December. Read our blog post for more info about this change.
After sending an email from within Canvas on IOS, I am unable to select and copy the text of that email. I realize I can select and copy the text before I hit send - but what about after? (I can do it when using Canvas on a PC in a browser.)
Thanks,
Brad
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi Again ~ The mobile team is aware of the limitation and is looking into making a change. Watch the Release Notes: Mobile for updates! I'll post back here if/when I hear anything official. ![]()
Hi, @brad_pike . I apologize if you've already tried this, but I would think the standard method of selecting text on an iOS device should work. Here is an article from the web on that, How to Copy and Paste on an iPhone. I don't have an iOS device to test this on currently or I would verify whether or not this works.
Hi! I tried this on my iPad, and you're right. I'll see what I can learn!
Thank you Kristin!
