Where is the clipboard on my iPhone?

Answered by Willian Lymon

Finding the clipboard on your iPhone is quite simple. To begin, open the Shortcuts app on your iPhone or iPad. If you don’t have the app installed, you can download it for free from the App Store. Once you have the app open, tap on the “Gallery” tab at the bottom of the screen.

In the Gallery, you will see a search bar at the top of the screen. Tap on it and type in “clipboard.” As you start typing, the app will suggest several shortcuts related to the clipboard. These shortcuts are pre-built actions that can help you interact with the clipboard in various ways.

You can browse through the suggested shortcuts and select the one that suits your needs. These shortcuts can perform tasks like saving the clipboard to a file, copying the clipboard to your notes, or even clearing the clipboard. Each shortcut has a description, so you can read more about what it does before selecting it.

Once you find a clipboard-related shortcut that you want to use, tap on it to open it. From there, you can customize the shortcut if needed, and then tap on the “Add Shortcut” button at the bottom of the screen. This will add the shortcut to your Shortcuts library.

To access your clipboard shortcuts, go back to the “My Shortcuts” tab in the Shortcuts app. Here, you will see a list of all the shortcuts you have added. Simply tap on the shortcut you want to use, and it will perform the specified action related to the clipboard.

It’s worth noting that the clipboard itself is a system feature on your iPhone, and the Shortcuts app simply provides a way to interact with it more conveniently. Whenever you copy something to your clipboard, you can access it by pasting it into any app that supports pasting, such as Notes, Messages, or Safari.

In summary, to find the clipboard on your iPhone, open the Shortcuts app, tap on the Gallery tab, search for “clipboard,” select a relevant shortcut, customize it if needed, and add it to your shortcuts library. Then, access your clipboard shortcuts from the My Shortcuts tab in the app. Remember that the clipboard is a system feature, and the Shortcuts app provides a way to interact with it easily.
