I think the whole menu should not be shown. Good catch @thesahindia

[laurenreidexpensify]

Just so I understand better, can you explain a bit more why you think this is a problem @thesahindia @parasharrajat ? I'm thinking that maybe we would want to give users the option to cut the URL and be able to share it to help us with virality?

[parasharrajat]

There are two things here:

1. First, the copy link option on the menu should not be present for links. This is not meant for these links.
2. Why is this menu popping up for app menu items? I am not sure if this was done intentionally but as per my knowledge, it was not the case a few months back.

OK, I can confirm 2 is intentional as per the #9047. But 1 is still an issue.
