Editing on iOS does have copy and paste icons

Bug graveyard
,
1

Steps to reproduce

  • Copy some content (text should be good)
  • Open any document in Obsidian on iOS (not iPadOS).
  • Start editing and try to paste to the cursor position.

Expected result

There should be a popup (like when you select some text inside obsidian) to copy & paste. Or there should be a copy/cut/paste icon on the keyboard candidates bar.

Actual result

Nothing pops up when tapping on the cursor. Need to type a few characters then select them, tap the highlight, and the pop up shows up. This is quite annoying because this workaround sometimes fails too.

Environment

  • Operating system: iOS 15.1
  • Obsidian version: 1.05

Additional information

The poping up feature should be a very fundamental one on iOS, but I have no idea if it is overwritten by Obsidian or not. I’m not using any community plugins during the bug report.

And the interesting is that, on iPadOS, when you tap the cursor, there is a pop up!:joy::joy::joy:

I am experiencing the exact same any fix? Only works if cursor is at the start of the line.

Same for me.

Having the same problem. Using three fingers is a workaround only.

is this still happening?

I’m not the OP, but I’m not able to reproduce the bug on iOS 16.4 with Obsidian 1.4.3. And I don’t recall encountering any paste issues on iOS in recent memory.
