The “Copy message” button in the Signal App on iPhone doesn’t show up when you long press the text (on the pop-up ribbon like other messaging apps).
The copy icon is placed in the bottom Tab Bar. That seems like an awkward UX error for such a mature app! Or is it just me wondering about this?
Overriding the given operating system’s native gestures, for basic tasks like copying and pasting, is a really bad idea. If you’re a designer/developer: there are plenty of other ways to add “character” to your apps, but just keep the look, feel, and gestures for regular tasks close to the native OS ways.
I wish more people embrace Signal in coming days still: https://signal.org/install/
