Let's see in this quick guide how to cut, copy and paste a piece of text on your Android device by following simple steps.
-
- Drag the selection using the sliders to highlight the exact text you want to copy.
- Select the option above " Size " or " Copy ". In some situations, cut and copy icons may appear in place of text. Select the icons in this case.
- Go where you want to paste the text.

If the copy and paste function doesn't work, probably the app where you want to paste or copy the text does not support this function. For example the Facebook application does not allow copying or cutting in many parts of the app itself. To work around this limitation, just open Facebook in a web browser and make the copy from there.
