There is no clipboard on the iPhone.

If you want to copy a hyperlink or text, please highlight it first and then click Copy and Paste in Note, Email, Pages etc.

In this case, the term copy to clipboard is used to indicate that what you want to copy (a hyperlink or text) is remembered by the iPhone's memory until you paste it somewhere.

 

If you've pasted that link somewhere in the past, you won't be able to access it anymore.

The Clipboard does not store any history.
