Is there some reason I am unable to copy and paste on an ipad? Please help! Does anyone know a fix for this?

Bumping this thread — would really like to be able to use command c on iPad. Not being able to copy paste with keyboard shortcuts drastically reduces efficiency. Seems like a small thing but it has a big impact.

Hey All,

The team had been tracking this issue, but they need more context to reproduce the issue.

What OS are you using?
What apps are you trying to paste from?
Which code path are you using to copy+paste with?

I did the project initially in my laptop, but I tried to make an edit in my ipad, but copying and pasting image wont work.

When I try to copy and paste image from photo library, it won’t work. But If I copy the pre added image in the figma project, copy/paste will work.

Thanks for reaching out and providing context, @Kevin_Aton!

What OS are you using?
Which code path are you using to copy+paste with?

We’ll pass this info onto our FigJam team, who is working on a fix for this bug.

Hello @Kevin_Aton! My name is Chris I work on our iPad Application. May I ask how you are copying the image from photo library? Are you using the iOS share sheet, tapping “Copy”, switching back to the Figma application, and trying to paste into a FigJam board?

Still no fix to this issue? Not being able to use shortcuts to copy is really messing up efficiency for me. Please fix 😦

How is this not available. Tried copy pasting a link from chrome and it didn’t work

Hey @Matias4,

Our team has been trying to get more info on the issue since May.

As we asked above, what OS are you using? How you are copying your image? Are you using the iOS share sheet, tapping “Copy”, switching back to the Figma application, and trying to paste into a FigJam board?

Please let us know any details, so our team can use it to reproduce and work on a fix.

Basically, when you try to copy an image (let’s say from safari). The image is on the clipboard, and then paste it - Hold down with the finger, the menu comes up, and then hit paste nothing happens.

Same issue that was described here - https://youtu.be/CwnSJ4MON3Y?t=250

Thank you, @Anul_Dev!

We’ll pass this onto our FigJam team.

Not working for me either. Just bought my iPad and solving this would make FigJam so much more attractive compared to competitors.

Tried copying images from website and from image lib. Works on other apps such as Freeform and goodnotes. Only thing that works is if i do the “long press cutout” in the images app and drag it over to FigJam.

iPad Air 5th gen
OS 16.4.1
PLEASE fix this

Reporting same issue on iPad and unable to copy paste images shapes etc. Help please.
