Android Community December 30, 2020 When you’re reading a website article or looking at your notes for a recipe you saved, you’ll probably come across units of measurement that you’ll need to convert to another unit. The “easiest” way would be to copy the text then paste it on Google and search for the conversion. But now Android seems to have quietly given us an easier way to do so using the Smart Text Selection feature. It’s still not as easy or as seamless but it beats doing it manually. Android Police shares this new “easter egg” functionality from your Android device using the Smart Text Selection tool, which is one of the most convenient things to come out of Android since 2017. The tool lets you pass text that you highlighted from one app to another through the suggestions in the box. If you highlight a phone number, you will see the Phone app in the tool box or if it’s an email address, it will suggest Gmail, and so on and so forth.
