Text select (copy/paste) not working in iOS app

New Here ,
Oct 19, 2022 Oct 19, 2022

Running iOS 16.0.3 and latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader 22.09.00. 

the latest version doesn't allow you to hold down over text to select it so you can copy and then paste somewhere else. It was working fine even in iOS 16 and last version of app, but now all of a sudden text isn't easily selectable. Please help

hi Jeff26690820jd7e,

 

Thank you for contacting us and we're sorry for any inconvenience.

 

For now, if you long-press on the text for 2-3 seconds, you should be able to select the text, and do copy&paste. Meanwhile, we're aware of the responsiveness issue you mentioned and it should be improved in the next release soon.

Thank you for your patience.

hi Jeff26690820jd7e,

The new release Acrobat Reader 22.10.00 is available now in App Store and it should resolve the issue you have experienced. Would you please give it a try to check if the issue still persists?

Thank you for your patience.

Nope, it still does not work.  I used to be able to select sections of a PFD and paste them into a document, but you no longer can do that on IOS, and have been able to for some time.
