Thanks for your feedback. Have had more people struggling with it. It is a bit of an design issue I believe.
The idea is when you need an address to receive coins (even when they are yours on the exchange) you go to ‘request coins’ and either ‘copy’ or ‘share’.
With ‘copy’ you will get a copy on the clipboard of the complete request including nu: at the start, then the address and if you entered the number of coin the amount at the end.
With ‘share’ you will get a list with applications. I often use email to share my address with to send people my address if they are not next to me. That way you can also copy and paste your address to an exchange.
You can do the same from the ‘address book’.
Another trick I’ve learnt is to use something like ‘Quickmark-QR’ on Windows. I’ve installed that on my PC/laptop with camera and I scan the QR code from my mobile Android wallet. From there on you can copy and paste the address to where you want.
I agree that it would be nice to be able to copy and paste the address directly from the front page on your mobile to the website of an exchange. The current front page GUI hasn’t much space to do so unfortunately.
