Duplicate code offered for quick copy in notification (verification code by PayPal)
- /e/ version: 0.18-q and earlier
- Device model(s): h850
- Device rooted: no
- Signal version: 5.17.3 and earlier
Summary
Duplicate code is offered for quick copy in notification (verification code by PayPal), received by Signal. Only one quick copy field is expected.
Verification codes send by other banks are not duplicated for quick copy (a single field is shown) or they are not parsed at all - but that is a different story.
The problem
Steps to reproduce
- Receive a verification code by PayPal
- Observe the notification of that message
What is the current behavior?
The code is offered twice for copying. It is distracting and unnecessary.
What is the expected correct behavior?
The code is offered in a single instance, i.e., only one quick copy field.
