Stats, as much as I do like my iPhone, I HATE using it to read The LP. I'll use it in a pinch but that's it.

What I didn't tell you is I still have and love my iPhone 8. Talk about using an ancient device but I don't care what anybody says or thinks about it. I sometimes look at my wife's iPhone 12 (I think it's a 12) but I've yet to see anything it does that's such a game changer that I'd give up my iPhone 8. All I ever do is make and receive phone calls, text, read my e-mail, check my calendar and maybe take a picture/make a short video or two with it. I aint no poweruser of an iPhone, never was,,, never gonna be one either!

Maybe if I win a jackpot I'll upgrade to a iPhone 14 but just for laughs. G5

I got good eyesight,.. it duzzn't bother me to use my phone..The New iPhonez are too xpensive,..I don't even think I'd buy one , even when I hit a Jackpot..a phone THAT xpensive should answer ITSELF..Hell, It already tawlkz to itz Ownerz..!!

So, the above text is what I copied.

If I press and hold, only the "link" option appears.

If I press in the reply box so I can type, my Android phone (pixel 5) shows the keyboard and clipboard. If I press the clipboard, the copied text is then pasted.

The clipboard icon should show above the keyboard where the gif and settings icons are.

Maybe another android user could give you some tips about how to paste with android? Or try googling how to do it on your phone. It's one of those basic "how to use your phone" things, and not really something to do with Lottery Post.

Oh yeah, that's right. On Android the Paste option appears right on the keyboard. You just tap to open the keyboard, and there it is right in the top row. It's even easier than on an iPhone.

How do you do it here at LP? Like if you did the search for "key picks" and wanted to paste it in your state

There is no difference between copying/pasting on your phone in ANY website or app and doing it in LP. Copy and paste is a basic feature of any smartphone. There is nothing special about copy and pasting in LP. It's just a website.

If you are not familiar with how to copy and paste on your phone, there are lots of YouTube videos that can show you how.

Again, it works just as it would on any website. If you want to copy something, you highlight it and then press Ctrl+C to copy. If you want to paste something you press Ctrl+V.

Knowing stats, he probably downloaded some obscure browser thinking it would prevent the lottery from spying on him. Unfortunately, many of these are buggy as he||. Tried a few myself on my own Android and learned my lesson to just stick to Chrome and Firefox.

And of course he too paranoid to tell us pertinent information like what browser he is using, what model/year his phone is, or heaven forbid show us a simple screenshot of the problem. You know, every lottery employee from Olympia to Orlando is glued to this thread.

Download a small program for windows called 'postimage' and you'll be able to copy and paste on Lotterypost easily.

If you're using Firefox download an 'add-on' called 'allow-right click' which allows you copy and paste on Lotterypost.

When you install postimage, you'll be able to screen capture the whole screen or part of the screen and cut and paste.

The add-on 'right-click' allows you to have this option.

I believe in Occam's razor:

The Simplest Answer is Usually Correct.

I copied this....

"If nothing pops up after a few seconds, the text might not be able to be copied. Some webpages block their text from copying to avoid plagiarism."

You'll find the rest here.....
