Can't copy text from a text message

[user02OLUUJDki]

Hello all. I have a new Samsung galaxy S22 that does not allow me to copy text from within a text message. When I press and hold I only receive the option to react to a message. I noticed that there are two different messaging options. One will let me copy text but doesn't offer reactions; the other offers reactions but won't let me copy text. Am i forced to choose one or the other?

Good afternoon, I hope you're doing well.

For me: when I press and hold the recieved message the ability to copy the message is appears at the top of your message thread it's a square icon that appears next to "selected"

Once you tap that little button, that will copy the text message.

I hope thos helps here's an example screenshot as a reference.

Worked for me as well. Thank you sooooo much!!!!
I've had note phones until now that they decided not to make them anymore. S23 ULTRA is a bit different.
