This is aggravation on an EPIC scale. I work in a facility that requires you to log onto a network that is only good for 24hrs. Each day you have to REGISTER. Yesterday I was able to COPY N PASTE the password from the page that is automatically generated. My phone updated to this CRAP that is IOS 12 last night and can no longer. Come to find out about 3K other IDIOTS in this facility, like myself, are having this issue - adding 5minutes, now I have go to my office, write down this 15 character password, hope like **** I get the 0 and O's right... ***..... #APPLEIPHONE ***** BIGG TODAY.
Starting with ios 12.0 clip board data is automatically erased after a few minutes (after a copy or cut, the data is saved in clip board).
I and others have reported this bug many times ever-since. However, this bug remains in subsequent releases. No comment has been given by Apple. There's no justification for it.
If it's a new privacy feature, It won't help privacy, it's just a nuisance. It definitely needs to be fixed.
I had the same problem with links in text messages. I used to hold down my finger on it and it would copy. Now it just opens the link. I found out how to copy it though (after months of aggravation). You just press and hold while sliding your finger up and the "Copy" option appears. I'm not sure why they changed it as it made sense to press once and the link opens, and press and hold to copy it, but I"m finding that common sense and technology (nor general common sense anywhere) doesn't exist much anymore...
Same here....
Even after updating to 12.0.1 this copy and paste problem STILL REMAINS!!!!
same goes for IOS 12.0.1
Same, I past text messages all the time and I can’t get it to work. Fine the first time then later on, no paste shows up. Hope they fix it. So frustra
It is working for me after the iOS 12.1 update. Thank you Apple.
You have to put your finger on the text you want to copy and hold it there for about 3 seconds. Then the option to copy will pop up with the reaction buttons.
I would suggest, if you have not already, installed iOS 12.1.
Seems to work great with iOS 12.1.
Copy is not the problem. Paste after a timeout or opening another app is the issue.

PASTE still not working with latest update 12.1(16B92) November 11, 2018.
This is ridiculous.
Is Apple monitoring this forum!?
I am using third party clipboard manager " Clipboard++"
It's better then nothing.
Try double tapping it works
Hi, I can copy and paste multiple times but then the clipboard seems to erase after a brief period of time. Is this apples idea of 'security' feature. No thank you.
