After I “copy” something I cannot “paste” it anywhere! Only “autofill” comes up.

It just started last night. It’s been fine/normal since I got my 14 Pro Max until then. Running iOS 17.

iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 17

Hi meee611,


To copy and paste you can not only use the tap option but you can also try using your fingers as seen in Select, cut, copy, and paste text on iPhone.


If it doesn't work, make sure you are in a field or app that allows text to be copied and pasted such as the Notes app to see if it is isolated to the app or the function.


If it is not working in multiple apps, restart your iPhone Restart your iPhone and try again.


Take care.
