This looks like a Firefox Android bug reported on Firefox iOS

Can someone from the iOS team use the issue transfer feature to move this to mozilla-mobile/fenix?

[NotWoods]

Usually devices supply a copy action in the share sheet, perhaps OnePlus is an exception? We can coordinate with QA to test for the presence of the option on devices, and potentially add the option manually if it doesn't show up.

I have the same issue. My phone is the Nokia 7 Plus running Android 10 (stock).

Samsung S7, I reported to Discourse asking for workaround: Firefox Android new v80+ release makes Share button unusable.

No copy to clipboard on Pixel 4a running Android 11 either.

Are you sure Android adds this by default? Are you sure this applies if you're showing a custom share sheet?

Huawei Mate 20 Pro, Android 10. I can confirm this issue is happening and is really annoying.

Seems like a manual addition of the copy action is required

I'm encountering this issue on a Galaxy S10e running Android 10.0 and FireFox version 80.1.3

when you press long on url bar, you can copy the url in my device.
Device: Lineage os 16

I think that is a good option to go around. But isn't this still considered a Bug if it's not consistent with every device?

[axeltrinidade]

[Suggestion/Feature request] Since the alternative to this is to hold the URL bar to copy - is it possible to add a 'share' button to the menu that opens when you hold the URL bar?

[john-parton]

Copying the URL from the URL bar is not the same as the old Copy Link feature.

EDIT

I installed "Share to Clipboard" on my personal device to work around this issue.

[mcarare]

From Android 10 there are some clipboard access restrictions, that is the reason the "copy to clipboard" is not available. There are some workarounds possible, having another app that provides this, or add a _copy button_ like Focus has. But UX should give the go ahead for that, as well as specs.
