Copy Link Anchor Text sɣur John Navas

THIS ONE REALLY WORKS!

On desktop, use the context menu or toolbar icon/shortcut to toggle copy mode.
On Android, activate the extension through the Extensions menu, then tap a link to copy its anchor text.

Features

• Copy anchor text of any link with a simple tap or right-click.
• Context menu option on desktop platforms.
• Toolbar icon and keyboard shortcut toggle for copy mode on desktop.
• Supports persistent copy mode (stay ON until manually turned OFF).
• Designed to work on both desktop Firefox and Firefox for Android.
• Lightweight and privacy-focused with no ads or tracking.
• Open source and free to use.

Installation & Onboarding

• On install or update, the extension opens the Options page for onboarding and settings.
• The Options page includes instructions, persistent mode toggle, privacy policy, and uninstall option.
• Responsive design ensures usability on desktop and mobile devices.

How to Use

Desktop

• Right-click on any link and select "Copy Link Anchor Text" to copy immediately.
• Use the toolbar icon to toggle tap-to-copy mode; when active, clicking a link copies instead of navigating.
• Optionally use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+R to toggle copy mode quickly.

Android

• Activate the extension from the Firefox Extensions menu.
• With copy mode enabled, simply tap a link; its anchor text is copied instead of opening the link.
• Persistent mode can be enabled in Options to keep copy mode ON until you turn it off.
