Why many texting apps still don't let choose specific parts to copy from a message?

I use Textra on Android and I can select which parts of a message to copy. I’m using the paid version and have for years, so I’m not sure whether that’s a standard feature or premium. The day Messages stopped letting me color-code each conversation was the day I quit using it; I can’t tell you how many times each person being a distinct color has saved my ass from texting the wrong stuff to the wrong person.

I also use Textra (for years, paid version).

I like that for 2FA codes, when the notification appears, there’s an option to copy the just code, and directly from peeking the message in the notification drawer.

Find a good app/dev, pay for the bells and whistles. ~sent from Sync for Lemmy ;)

Google messages does the same thing, I think it’s built into android itself and not the app
