AllowCopy - Text Copying by sovkit

📋 Select, press a key, copy — the way the web is supposed to work

Some pages turn copying off: the text you selected will not copy, what you paste comes with a copyright notice stapled to it, the right-click menu never appears, or the text will not even select. AllowCopy gives you back the copying your browser already had. Select, press, copy — nothing more to it.

🌟 Core Features

⌨ Copy with a keystroke: Select text, press the shortcut, and it lands on your clipboard
🖱 Or use the right-click menu: The same action sits in the menu, so reach for whichever comes naturally
↩ Blocked right-click is no obstacle: The shortcut comes from the browser itself, so no page can take it away; if the text will not even select, press it once with nothing selected and selection comes back
🫧 Copy button on the page: Turn it on and every page you open gets selecting and copying back, with a copy button appearing right beside what you select. Each of the three ways to copy has its own switch
🧼 Clean text: The copyright footer a page appends while you copy gets blocked, so what you paste is what you selected
🔗 Keep the source: Optionally append the page address to what you copy, so a quote never loses where it came from
💬 Feedback where you are: A short message in the corner of the page confirms the copy went through
☁ Multi-device sync: Your settings stay in sync through a storage service of your own
🌍 Multi-language: Supports English and Simplified Chinese

💡 Use Cases

• Research: Pull a key passage into your notes instead of retyping it word by word
• Citing: Copy the page address along with the text so the source stays attached
• Code: Take the commands and snippets out of technical documentation as you read
• Details that must be exact: Addresses, phone numbers and reference codes, copied right the first time

🛠 How to Use

1. Select the text you want on the page
2. Press the shortcut (Alt+C by default)
3. It is on your clipboard; you can also right-click the selection and choose "Copy selected text"

The shortcut can be changed to whatever suits you on your browser's extension shortcuts page.

📏 How Much You Can Copy

One selection at a time, and always one you made by hand. Everyday quotes, snippets and contact details are free; taking a long passage whole is a Pro feature. There is no copy-page, no copy-all, no automatic pagination and no export — to keep a whole article, use your browser's "Save Page As".

🔒 Privacy
The text you select goes from the page straight to your clipboard on your device. Nothing is stored, nothing is uploaded. The extension asks for no site permissions by default — until you invoke it yourself, it cannot touch any page. The on-page copy button is the one exception, and it asks you the moment you turn it on. Selections inside input boxes are never handled, so passwords and payment details are never read.
