iPhone won't copy links and email them correctly anymore

Man this is frustrating. My iPhone used to copy links from safari and allow me to paste them to an email. Now, it copies ONE MASSIVE link all run together as one instead of the individual page links and what is emailed is not able to be opened. Why was this disabled? How can I copy page links from open pages in safari and email them to myself anymore????




iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 18

Texts Not Opening Correcting:

So, are you saying that what was down was just the domain? And what happens when it is copy and pasted into the Web browser.


Try Another Web Browser as the Default:

You may want to try change the default Web browser on your iPhone. Google Chrome and Brave and DuckDuckGo are examples of what to try. You'll find then all in the App Store.

  1. Go here: Change your Default Apps for Features on iPhone and iPad - Apple Support
  2. Scroll to: Change default apps on iPhone and iPad
  3. Proceed form there as necessary

No, the domains are not down. I don't want to copy to web browser. I want to copy a bunch of links from pages open in Safari so I can open them on my pc. In the past they all get copied and are all able to be opened via sending an email to myself. Now, they show up as one giant link all run together and they can't be opened. The only work around I found is to past the copied links into an iPhone NOTE and then open that on my pc and go through them which is not what I want to do. There is no reason this functionality should have disappeared that I can see. I open them via email and Chrome...or at least I have done that for years until lately. What you do on iPhone is Edit, Copy links...then paste, but it doesn't work even though the method still exists.
