How can I ask Siri to paste text without formatting in app?

How cool and valuable would it not be to be able to ask your app about how to use it? No more searching the web or paging through user guide documents.


App developers could provide basic user guide and support information to Apple Intelligence that could use this and/or train itself based on this input. If necessary due to security, it could be restricted to only be available in the current app.


Q: What is the keyboard shortcut for pasting text without formatting?

A: In this app it is command + shift V. It is usually called "Paste and match formatting" and may vary betweeen different apps.


Next step is to provide Apple Intelligence with shortcuts to open views or to highlight GUI elements to guide the user.


A: Would you like me to show you the menu item for this action?


And of course, then it would be more use for the shortcut actions to enable Siri to perform the desired action for you.


A: Next time you can just tell me to paste you clipboard content without formatting.
