add an option to copy qr code data #1653

Closed r10s closed 1 year ago

r10s commented 2 years ago

copying/pasting qr codes around is a simple and useful fallback if qr code scanning is not possible. adding this to ios is just feature parity with android/desktop in this area.

to copy a qr code to clipboard:

to paste a qr code from clipboard:

EDIT: paste becomes less important, see discussion below

i think, even by the new http://i.delta.chat , it still makes sense to target at least "copy to clipboard", to have the same experience on all platforms, cmp. https://github.com/deltachat/invite/issues/10 - switching later to a direct "copy invite-link to clipboard" seems to be easy then.

"paste from clipboard", oth seems not to be super-important with the new invite links; still makes sense for some corner-cases, sure, however, nothing to keep as an open issue (it was not really missed up to now).
