Some people have been having a dialog box appear every time they try to copy and paste something because of a frustrating issue in Apple's mobile operating system. Apple confirmed that this is not what the company intended with its new clipboard privacy measures.
A customer complaint about an issue that was initially sent to Tim Cook and Craig Federighi was responded to by a senior engineer. We will get to the bottom of it, and this is not expected behavior.
This behavior was not encountered by Apple before the release of the new operating system. The bug mostly affects the new lineup of phones. I have successfully reproduced the paste prompt on both occasions when I have set up my new iPhones as new without a backup. There is an Apple team. We need to get after it and spare it.
He is listed among the inventors of the feature in Apple's patent filing. The "allow" dialog is supposed to be displayed when an app tries to access pasteboard data without user involvement. The bug is conflicting with the system's core paste command.
Hopefully this is something that Apple can patch quickly, so that people don't have to wait for the more substantial iOS 16.1 release that's unlikely to arrive for several more weeks.
