Copy and paste on iPhone
Copying on an iPhone starts with selecting: a double tap selects a word, a triple tap a paragraph, and touching and holding the space bar turns the keyboard into a trackpad. These guides cover every part of the job, from copying a link without opening it to pasting text without its formatting and moving several items between apps in one trip.

Questions
How do I copy a link on iPhone without opening it?
Touch and hold the link, then choose Copy Link from the menu that appears. It works in Safari, Messages, Mail and most apps that show links.
Can I copy two things at once on iPhone?
Not with the system clipboard, which holds one item. A clipboard manager keeps each copy so you can paste them one after another.
Clipboard AI keeps what you copy on iPhone, iPad and Mac, searchable and one tap from any app. Free for your last 10 copies.
