Hi Y5167,


We'd like to help you find the best resolution path. What exactly happens when you try to copy text? Do you see a menu appear with a Copy option, or does the menu not appear at all? Does this happen with any other apps? Also, restart your iPhone: Restart your iPhone. Test out copying and pasting text afterwards.


Respond back if the issue persists.


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Thanks for your attention in this regard. As the figure-1 shows, this step is supposed to copy text to the clipboard. And, this works fine in iOS 14. It is a legacy shortcut. However, it doesn't work in iOS 15 even the clipboard access has been granted. Furthermore, even u try to copy the contain manually (using copy option in the menu) while running this shortcut, the text u just input can't be copied to the clipboard as well. I just tested it. Looks like some clipboard accessing authority setting issue which iOS 15 hasn't handled well.
