A report from XDA-Developers notes that despite numerous attempts to visit restaurant websites, suggestions based on that have yet to pop up.Ĭopyless Paste was first reported on in March, though at the time the full extent of the feature was unknown. In other words, the feature largely works based on context - which makes sense. Unfortunately, while there’s a flag in the Chrome Canary build, it doesn’t seem as though the feature properly works just yet. “If you looked at a restaurant website and switched to the Maps app, the keyboard would offer the name of that restaurant as a suggestion to enter into the search bar,” says the code’s description in the Chrome for Android Canary build. The company is testing a so-called “Copyless Paste” on Android, which allows users to paste text without having to copy it first.īut how does the phone know what to copy? Well, chances are your phone won’t totally cut out copy just yet - but it could intelligently figure out what you might want to copy, even in different apps. The humble copy/paste is a staple of modern technology (and essay-writing), but Google could be looking to cut out 50 percent of those steps. Copyless Paste could cut out yet another step in your workflow on your phone - and show up just when you need it to.
