How to copy links from address bar?

I used to be able to long press and copy links. Now i just get a crappy search bar.

Whats the updated way to get URLs copies to the clipboard?

Thank you

Operating System and Brave Version(See the About Brave page in the main menu):

Additional Information:

But you could always use the share button

In case ANYONE is wondering. This has to do with not being able to copy or edit URLs in the brave address bar when you click it the address bar from any webpage (at least on mobile).
So (for those that don’t know), normally, in any browers, when you click the address bar, the website address is there to be edited or copied (it may or may not be highlighted automatically as you click the address bar).

However, for some reason that has baffled the userbase of Brave, this feature (this core, common, expected feature) is no longer available.

MOST People wpuld not know now how to get the address of the page they are on for their own purposes: like navigation by deleting some of the URL or copying it.

That’s a little harsh towards Brave users, I think most people know what you are referring to… with my comments above I was just suggesting to give more details and that’s the template usually suggested to use…

I’d encourage to give more details at least in terms of versions you are using

OS:
Brave version:
etc. etc.

I personally am fully aware of how it works and I would think the common user would to (but maybe not :man_shrugging:), that’s why I suggested one option to grab the link by using the share button, if you still want the full link to edit then again… give more details and help people, help you :wink:

I’d also encourage @AnotherLogin to edit the original post and change the CATEGORY to Mobile Support and maybe add some Tags (e.g. ios, android, etc.) for better chance of further assistance.

EDIT: This might be more helpful:

Also have a look at this, it sounds a bit different from what you are saying but it could be related:
