Unlocked Secret: The Simple Trick to Fix Universal Clipboard Issues on Apple Devices

Summary One of the key features that enhances the user experience across Apple devices is Universal Clipboard, allowing users to copy content from one device and paste it on another. However, a user recently encountered reliability issues with this feature. After troubleshooting, they discovered that locking their iPhone after copying text was causing the problem. Leaving the device unlocked solved the issue.

Key Points:

• Universal Clipboard: Copy content from one Apple device and paste it on another.
• Issue: Universal Clipboard failed to work when the source device (iPhone) was locked.
• Solution: Keep both devices unlocked until the content is pasted successfully.
• Note: This limitation does not apply when copying from an iPad to an iPhone.
