Exactly same here. Makes it unusable. It should be just a simple thing to be able to copy/paste!! Please fix this!

Same issue
ios 13.14.1
ipad pro 12,9 + apple magic keyboard
safari browser

Unable to copy & paste text cell
Cmd+a to select all text in cell works correctly
Cmd+c/v does nothing

Same issue here,
iPadOS 13.5
iPad Pro 12.9 (3rd Gen) with Smart Keyboard Folio
Safari

Unable to copy anything within colab, but able to paste content from other pages or apps.

Update on 06/06/2020

System version: iPadOS 13.5.1
Hardware: iPad Pro 12.9 (3rd Gen) with Smart Keyboard Folio
Browser: Latest Safari, Chrome and Firefox

Tried to use iPadOS 13 gestures/customise new shortcuts to copy selected codes in Colab cell, but system shows ‘Nothing to copy’. Probably something goes wrong with the javascript/css that iPadOS cannot recognise the selected contents in Colab, but working great on other web applications.

Exactly same here. Makes it unusable. It should be just a simple thing to be able to copy/paste!! Please fix this!

Same issue here..very frustrating
