Illusive Clipboard

Where is the clipboard on my iPad?? I keep clicking “share” to post my Wordle results and it keeps telling me it’s copied to the clipboard! Where is it??

The iPad clipboard is merely a temporary location for text (or objects) that you “cut” or “copy”. When you “paste”, the last item copied to the clipboard is pasted to the chosen location.


The iOS/iPadOS clipboard is not of itself an accessible location or App - neither does it maintain any kind of history that can be reviewed or edited.


To copy to the clipboard, highlight the text passage, image or object; from the menu, select Copy.




Having copied the text or other item, you can simply “paste” to someplace else. To paste the current clipboard object, touch-and-hold with your finger to expose an action menu; from the menu, tap Paste.
