Riru-ClipboardWhitelist VS CopyQ

If you have root, installing Riru and allowing KDE app to access the clipboard would be the best solution... (https://github.com/Kr328/Riru-ClipboardWhitelist) If you dont, you caun use ADB Wifi to execute the KDE tile (send clipboard) every time your clipboard updates. I think you need the READ_LOGS permissions to allow tasker access your clipboard.

Also you can use the Zorin Connect (which is based on KDE Connect) app if you want, instead of KDE Connect in your android device. I use it as it has a better looking UI than KDE Connect on Android. And if your android is rooted, you can use this module (Riru Clipboard Whitelist) to allow KDE/Zorin Connect to read your clipboard, so that you don't have to press the "Send Clipboard" button everytime you copy something on your Android.

I'm using the Riru-ClipboardWhitelist which works well on Android 10 but i only want the clipboard to go Android>PC and not PC>Android.

Maybe with some magisk module like Clipboard Whitelist would it be possible to get around this? I know it's not the best solution because not everyone has root access, but at least it's an alternative.

It's been a while and I think the solution was Riru-ClioboardWhitelist. I found an article about it and the corresponding GitHub repo but don't currently have root on my phone and never used it so I can't attest as to its efficacy. It does look still maintained with a commit from May.

If you're able to root your phone, this Riru module can revert that change.

Yeah, I recall someone mentioned this rooted Android solution. https://github.com/Kr328/Riru-ClipboardWhitelist. It's a Magisk module. Use at your own risk, etc.

There is a Magisk module to fix it if you have root.

Great to hear :)

Re: a new clipboard app, often people recommend CopyQ, which is cross-platform: https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ

There are some really really good open source clipboard libraries like https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ . I'd love to see a more cross-platform version.

It's shocking to me how much user-agency I feel like I could get from better control over my clipboard. Whether I want to turn a url into an archive.today/ url or remove crappy tracking links, or whether I want to send a url to another device, or share it... Having a history of things I've copied. The clipboard is weirdly the one interstitial system left standing in computing, and everything else is siloes and isolation. I'd love to see more and more work to make good open source explorations here.

Does anyone know if clipboard managers are possible in Android? I'm vaguely under the impression that by design this is a capability reserved for the keyboard one is using. I'd love to be wrong here.

/u/MaxGaav CopyQ looks like it has an editor. Doesn't look as polished as Copy 'Em I think, which is new to me. That looks great.

I thought otherwise, given that "Unlimited history" is literally CopyQ's most thumbs-upped issue: https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ/issues/510

At https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ/issues/27 the topic Wayland is covered. There are also a few solutions mentioned that you can use temporarily.

I use CopyQ ... It's very good.

https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ Looks like what you are after. Haven't used it myself, but the drag 'n' drop feature you're specifying looks to be supported.

CopyQ my dude

There are Ditto and CopyQ. They don't show you a list of paste-able items via right-click context menu though, but you can open a list of paste-able items by clicking the icon in your task bar in the bottom right corner.
