 * Tried multiple ways now and paste does **not **work on mobile. I’ve tried multiple
   times using multiple ways and it just does not work on mobile. I’ve looked at
   the upgrade features for pro and it does not appear to be included. So while 
   I’m thankful I did not already pay for it only to find out it didn’t work to 
   do the most convenient for me thing I would want it to do. I do hope you guys
   fix this. I have the latest version of the plugin and WordPress installed by 
   the way. It just absolutely does not work (on mobile)

 * Hi [@xwhat](https://wordpress.org/support/users/xwhat/),
 * Can I ask whether this is also true for the built-in WordPress code editor? We
   use the same software, so if it works in that instance but not for this one then
   we can look into what we might be doing wrong when loading the editor.

 * I also posted about this but didn’t want to go back and forth with that person
   who had no clue what he was talking about.
 * Pasting works in all other areas of WP.
 * ”If you highlight text you can’t cut, copy, or anything else. If you pick an 
   empty area you cannot paste into it. The menu options just don’t show up. Nothing
   happens when you double click a word, or hold down the screen for a few seconds.
 * The cut, copy, paste, replace, autofill, format, find selection, lookup, & translate
   options just don’t pop up on screen.”
