I know various apps & launchers enable different sorts of long press context menu options, but I was wondering if there’s any sort of “universal” context menu that could be used across apps to enable some otherwise absent functionality.
For example, some apps it doesn’t necessarily make much sense to have text selection enabled, but you may still want to copy over the text to run a separate search. Others may try to force you to open links via the app’s link redirect/browser (or the app’s just glitching & won’t let you tap the link) or whatever instead of letting you select & copy the link text to open it in your own browser or run it through a link checking tool.
Given those situations, this sort of “universal” context menu could be super useful, but I haven’t had luck turning anything up & I’m not sure what search terms may be better for this. Thanks in advance!
Basically, it’s a copy feature, right?
Universal copy should be what you want.
Not exclusively, but that was the primary function that brought the question to mind. I found Universal Copy, but I was hoping for something more flexible, and ideally, FOSS.
The only options that remain which are foss are to take a screenshot and use OCR to find text and copy. There’s OCR, OCR(tessaract) and Text fairy(super old and source code not updated any further)
Thanks! I appreciate the pointers, hoped I might’ve been overlooking some hidden gem, but looks like it may not be just yet.
