iOS Share Extension

Hi there, first of all just wanted to say that I’m loving Joplin and think it’s an awesome project. I’ve left Evernote entirely and feel much more in control of my thoughts now that I can control where and how they are stored.

However, I stumbled on this thread because I was a little disappointed with the iOS share feature since it does not scrape the webpage content when sharing from a safari, only the iOS link which isn’t always very useful.

I did however find a great workaround that works very well at scraping the page contents on iOS. The workaround can be found here:

Using this I’m able to scrape the content using the force select all button that is generated using this shortcut, then I select share and choose the Joplin app and bam, the text is copied over.

My only gripe is that the title is not copied over into the note, but I can live without that.
