iPhone: How long does cut or copied text stay in the clipboard? This was asked in 2019 (with over 400 ppl responding “Me Too”), yet there is still seemingly no concrete resolution to the issue. Simple Question: After you “Cut” or “Copy” text on an iPhone, how long does it remain saved in the clipboard in order to “Paste” the text elsewhere? (To be clear, I am not referring to pasting content on another device. This is simply regarding cut/copy and then paste on one individual iPhone device.)

Keyboard Clipboard Hi I very recently migrated to iPhone. On my previous device, the onscreen keyboard had a "clipboard" which would house all the recent texts/photos that you copied & pasted. Is this feature included with iPhone? I can't seem to find a button for the clipboard ("copy" history) anywhere. Thank you.

Hello! Unfortunately iPhones do not have a clipboard like other operating systems have. (A list of things previously copied)
