Copy text in power bi app

I need to copy text from a matrix visual in power bi app, but i figured that I cant, is theres anything that i can do to enable such feature or so? 

Also, when i long press on the field it shows me a dark box like this and i also can't copy from it, as shown in the picture below, knowing that if i tried to copy value from the web interface it can easily be done, so it appears that the problem only appears in the power bi app.

Many thanks.

Hey @mj5 ,

 

The easiest way to copy the data is by using the visual ellipsis and choose "show as table", then on the table you should be able to use standard phone touch gesture to copy the table (tap-->select all--> copy).
