Android mobile version stopped notification of profile id capture

WDavid72

Using Android Family Tree, version 5.0.1.

On several screens, the profile ID can be seen. From some of those same screens, a user can just tap the profile ID, and copy the ID to the clipboard. Until a recent update, that process of capturing the profile ID would be followed by an on-screen notification of "profile id copied" (or something like that — I may not have the precise wording correct). Such notification is now mysteriously gone. So, now we have no assurance regarding whether the ID was actually captured from each screen, or whether we need to try somewhere else, as not all presentations of the profile ID can actually copy the ID in this way.

Please bring back this helpful assurance notification.

Although the Person ID (PID) is indeed shown on several screens, there's only one where tapping on it actually copies the PID to the clipboard. That is on the header of the person's details. Is that where you were tapping on the PID, or somewhere else?

When I tap on the PID there using version 5.0.1, I get feedback that the PID has been copied. It looks like this on my phone (it appears for about 5 seconds and then goes away) :

I have no idea what "Send to device" would even mean. But no. Even tapping on the ID in the header of the person's profile makes no change on screen for me. There is zero indication that anything happened. The screen does not change.

@WDavid72 The device-specific feedback when something is copied to the clipboard is only automatically done for Android 13+. I'm guessing you are on Android 10, 11, or 12. The Tree 5.x app must have neglected to handle the feedback for Android 10-12. I'll make sure it gets reported. Thanks for the helpful details!

Working fine here when I touch any PID in the Android app on Android 13. Message says 'Copied to clipboard'.
