Yes, Copy & Pasting is Broken in Notion for iPad

There’s a weird issue with Notion for iPad that’s preventing users from copying multiple blocks of text and pasting them in another application, instead requiring you to move the data over one block at a time – which is highly inefficient.

The issue doesn’t seem to impact copying from an external source and pasting into Notion, so if you’re moving data for safekeeping you should be fine. But if you’re trying to make a withdrawal so to speak, you’re in for a world of hurt.

All Hope Is Not Lost

There is a workaround, though. Simply open Notion in Safari and you’ll be able to copy all of the text at once. Again, this is far from ideal for those of us who use Notion for iPad, but it sure beats having to copy data one paragraph at a time.
