I'm trying to implement a user-friendly way to copy some text from a text input field to the clipboard on iOS/Safari. I understand there is no way to programmatically do it on this platform, but I was hoping I could guide the user experience as much as possible.
On iOS/Safari, when a user manually highlights some text, a contextual Copy menu pops up. I was hoping the same menu would pop up when the text is selected programmatically, but it doesn't. Is it even possible to do that?
If not, any advice on how to best implement a user-friendly experience to copy some text to the clipboard on iOS/Safari?
For reference, I'm selecting the text using the method described in this question: Programmatically selecting text in an input field on iOS devices (mobile Safari)
