Unable to reference another issue in the description using the macOS app

[Maksym]

Referencing issues like described here works for the webapp but not the macOS app - the editor doesn't replace the issue key with a link. Is there any other way to link to issues?

Hello @Maksym,

Thank you for reaching out to Atlassian Community!

Testing on Jira Cloud for Mac, I was able to replicate the same as you. When adding the issue key, it's not converted to a link to access the ticket.

When adding the complete URL, after saving the comment, it will be converted the same as the Web version. 

I believe that this is a restriction on the app, so I created a feature request suggesting to add this option:

• When adding an issue key on a comment in Jira Cloud for Mac, it should be automatically converted to a clickable link the same as the Web version

Please, click on vote and watch to receive updates about the feature.

Regards,
Angélica
