I don't know if you can copy to clipboard directly on Android, but you can use Share plugin. When "Share" window is shown to the user, there is an option to copy to clipboard.

Is there a documentation for this? Also can I export normally and this will work?

On each Android phone the Share window will be different (depending on Android version, apps installed etc.)

"Copy to clipboard" option may or may not be there. I do have this option on all my phones, but it's probably because of the Google Drive app.

Hi LaurenceBedford,

If you still need this, you can use this plugin construct.net/en/make-games/addons/407/copyclip

I have tested the Execute Command Action as Android apk, and it works fine. However it requires a button to Copy text to Clipboard.

I did not test the Clipboard API on Android, not sure if it works.

Thanks,

At the time I used the share plugin through scirra as that allows you to copy the text, I am taking a look at your plugin now!
