I want to select and copy lots of passages of text from many pages in an Android application and paste it into a PC environment for processing. This is an ongoing need.

I'm thinking of getting an OTG adaptor to attach a wired mouse, then copying and pasting into a Google Doc that's also open on the PC.

Or is there a better way..?

just tried this on my pixel -

screenshot text page
open photos app
copy text
select all text
copy text to computer

you need to be signed in to chrome on the pc.

Can't you just swipe up to the app tiles and copy the paste from there? Saves screen shotting.

Problem is that that doesn't allow for pages that scroll/concertina.
