Copy text from any LinkedIn post instantly. Works on iPhone, Android and desktop. No login. No browser extension. No signup. Just paste the URL and copy.
LinkedIn intentionally disables the standard copy and paste function on posts in its mobile app. This is a deliberate product decision to keep users inside the platform and discourage content from being taken off it. On desktop it is technically possible to select and copy text but the experience is inconsistent and often frustrating on longer posts.
The problem is especially common for users on iPhone and Android. When you try to long-press a LinkedIn post on mobile to select text nothing happens. The selection tool simply does not appear. This is one of the most searched frustrations among LinkedIn users worldwide and it affects everyone from content creators to recruiters to students saving posts for reference.
The fix: Instead of trying to select text directly from the post, copy the post URL and paste it here. CopySocial extracts the full text for you instantly and lets you copy it with a single click.
Content creators use it to save posts they want to repurpose across Twitter, newsletters or blogs. Marketers use it to monitor competitor messaging and build content swipe files. Saving a post as a screenshot means you cannot search or edit the text. Extracting it as plain text gives you full flexibility.
Recruiters copy job posts and candidate profiles to track information across tools. Talent acquisition teams save thought leadership posts from industry leaders for internal sharing. The LinkedIn Post Copier makes this workflow instant instead of manual.
Job seekers copy job postings to analyse keywords before submitting their resume. Saving the exact language from a job description helps you tailor your resume and LinkedIn profile to match what the employer is looking for. This is especially useful when combined with our ATS Resume Checker.
Researchers save thought leadership posts, industry news and data points shared on LinkedIn. Students copy insights from professors, industry leaders and professionals they follow for notes and assignments.
LinkedIn is used by professionals in over 200 countries. Our LinkedIn Post Copier works for everyone regardless of location or device.
Open the LinkedIn app, tap the three dots on the post you want to copy, tap Copy link. Then come to CopySocial, paste the link and click Extract. The full post text appears instantly and you can copy it with one tap.

You can repurpose it for your own content, save it for reference, analyse it for keyword ideas or use it to tailor your resume. If you copied a job posting, paste it into our ATS Resume Checker alongside your resume to see how well your keywords match.
