Triggered auto assignment to @CortneyOfstad (Bug), see https://stackoverflow.com/c/expensify/questions/14418 for more details.

@CortneyOfstad I haven't added the External label as I wasn't 100% sure about this issue. Please take a look and add the label if you agree it's a bug and can be handled by external contributors.

[CortneyOfstad]

Thanks @kbecciv! I've been diving into this and I think that this could be handled by an external contrubutor 👍

Triggered auto assignment to Contributor-plus team member for initial proposal review - @eh2077 (External)

[CortneyOfstad]

@eh2077 Please let me know if you have any concerns about this potentially being a BE Issue, and we can get that tags switched. From what I could see, it appears not to be, but would love fresh eyes just in case 👍

[eh2077]

@CortneyOfstad Yeah, this is most likely an issue from frontend.

[CortneyOfstad]

Posted in VIP-VSB here

[melvin-bot]

@CortneyOfstad, @eh2077 Whoops! This issue is 2 days overdue. Let's get this updated quick!

[CortneyOfstad]

Going to reach out to CallStack to see if someone can take this on 👍

📣 It's been a week! Do we have any satisfactory proposals yet? Do we need to adjust the bounty for this issue? 💸

Some information if it help. I can't reproduce the bug. In the gallery app(which I downloaded from google play), there is no 'copy to clipboard' option, I tried 3~4 apps. Finally I noticed in app swiper we can copy image to clipboard. When I copy the image to composer of expensify, everything works fine. I am a ios user and rarely use android device by the way.

Issue is still reproducible on the latest build 9.0.20-2

Still waiting for #47203 to hit production, so going to put this on-hold

Okay, botify is sick, so the move to production was done manually without an update to the PR. It went into Production 2 days, ago so the 7-day wait period is over on Aug. 26!

[mvtglobally]

Issue not reproducible during KI retests. (First week)

[CortneyOfstad]

The hold period for production has been completed so this can be closed!

Let's keep this one open, it seems to be reproducible on Samsung devices only. cc @ahmedGaber93 can you please confirm this is still reproducible from your end

[ahmedGaber93]

can you please confirm this is still reproducible from your end

It reproduced on production, and I will retest the latest main branch today.

[ahmedGaber93]

@s77rt The feature itself is not working with me on android (on both emulator and real device) after RN upgrading to 0.75.2.

@ahmedGaber93 Can you try remove the node_modules/react-native folder and reinstall, it's possible that the patch is not being applied in your case

[ahmedGaber93]

Can you try remove the node_modules/react-native folder and reinstall, it's possible that the patch is not being applied in your case

@s77rt Yes, I already did that before the build. And I think the patch is applied correctly because it works fine on iOS

[s77rt]

Indeed, looks like something broke it. Will take a look asap

[s77rt]

@ahmedGaber93 The patch fix #48370

[ahmedGaber93]

can you please confirm this is still reproducible from your end

@s77rt Yes, it still reproduced on real Samsung device
