How to copy terminal output on iOS

Replit Help

Is there a way to copy terminal output on iOS? I have the app and google chrome. I need to copy terminal output for a security feature (I have to paste a long string in order to start a jupyter notebook).

I can’t figure out how to copy the output from the Shell on a mobile device.

thanks

Are you using the Replit mobile app, or the browser version?

I tried both. I can’t select or copy the output from
the shell

Thanks for reporting this issue. I’ve escalated this to the mobile team.

Hey @travelmail26!

Unfortunately, it is not possible to copy text from the terminal output on iOS due to the limitations of the terminal emulator we use (Xterm.js). However, it is on our roadmap to replace Xterm with a better system that is built to completely support mobile, but we do not currently have an ETA for when that will be out.
