Preview: These docs are available early so you can start using them now. Some pages may still be incomplete, outdated, or change as WebLibre develops.

Context Menu

When you long-press something on a page, WebLibre shows a context menu with actions that match that item.

What you see depends on what you pressed:

  • A normal web link shows link actions

  • An image shows image actions

  • A downloadable file or media link can show save actions

  • An email link can show email-related actions

You will not see every option every time.

Links and Downloadable Files

Long-press a regular web link to see actions such as:

  • Open in new tab — Opens the link in a background tab

  • Open in container — Opens the link in a specific container. This appears only when Show Container UI is enabled.

  • Copy link — Copies the link address

  • Copy link text — Copies the text you see on the page, not the address behind it

  • Share link — Shares the link with Android apps. This row also includes a QR code button.

  • Open in App — Opens the link in another app, if your device has one for that link

For some downloadable links, audio, or video items, you may also see:

  • Save file — Downloads the file to your device

Image Actions

Long-pressing an image can show:

  • Open image in new tab — Opens the image itself in a new background tab

  • Copy image — Copies the image directly to your clipboard so you can paste it into another app

  • Save image — Downloads the image to your device

  • Copy image location — Copies the image’s direct address

  • Share image — Shares the image with another app

You may also see Copy link or Share link if the image is also a link.

Email Links

Long-pressing an email link can show:

  • Share email address — Shares the address with another app

  • Open in App — Opens your mail app, if Android offers one for that link

URL Cleaning Preview

If URL Cleaner is enabled, WebLibre can show a Tracking detected or URL cleaned entry for HTTP and HTTPS links.

Tap it to review which tracking parameters were found before you open the link. If auto-apply is enabled in URL Cleaner settings, the cleaned link may already be applied.

Minimal Menu in PWA and Custom Tabs

In PWA windows and custom tabs, WebLibre shows a slimmed-down context menu with only the most relevant actions. This keeps the interface lightweight for these focused browsing modes.

Tips

  • Use Copy image to quickly move an image between apps without saving a file first

  • Use Open in container when you want a link to open under a specific container, and make sure that container has Cookie Isolation enabled if you need separate logins or cookies

  • If you do not see Open in container, check whether Show Container UI is enabled in Settings > Browsing

  • If you do not see Open in App, Android may not have a matching app for that link type

  • The menu changes based on what you long-press, so different pages can show different actions
