The wallet seed can't be copied, meaning we need to manually type this out, which is very annoying.

The clipboard on Android isn't safe, as any app can read from it. That's likely why you aren't allowed to copy it.

Being forced to screenshot it and manually type in each word when restoring isn't any better when you could paste it into a vault then overwrite the clipboard immediately.

Could this be considered please as I doubt many people backup their wallet seeds with this barrier.

Hi, has this enhancement been considered?

The clipboard is indeed not the absolute best way to transfer a wallet seed, but I just set up a wallet for someone and the first thing they did was try to screenshot it onto Google Photos and gave up after that failed. I think having the seed in the clipboard temporarily is fair enough, but shown with a warning. For most people it has to be quick and easy to save, or they won't, and proceed to lose their coins when the phone dies.

Can be develop an alternative clipboard reachable with a share hub function? Makes sense it?
