This post has more than 4,200 likes and has become a hot topic on Instagram. Now let’s get into the details of this post.
You can copy and paste across devices!
What exactly are the magical iPhone features? First, let’s prepare two iPhones at hand. Normally, each person should have only one smartphone, so one of them can be an iPad instead of an iPhone.
Open the “Memo” app on both prepared devices.

Then, type some random characters into one of the devices. If you copy the character and paste it on the other device, you can paste it as it is.

Instagram users who read this post commented, “Oh yeah!” Surprised voices are coming one after another.
The true identity of the magic is the “universal clipboard”!
What is going on with this secret trick that looks like a magic trick?
In fact, the “universal clipboard” feature implemented in iOS 10 and later is the answer to this trick. The universal clipboard is an interesting feature that extends the clipboard function of iOS (macOS) so that it can be shared with other devices. If the copy destination device has the same Apple ID, the data is instantly sent via Wi-Fi.
In order to use this trick, both devices must use the same Apple ID, must be connected to the same Wi-Fi, and must be paired via Bluetooth. It’s a condition. As long as this is clear, copy and paste is possible not only between iPhones, but also between iPads and iPhones, Macs and iPads, and so on. I’m not sure where to use it, but since you can copy and paste across devices like magic, I think many people would like to try it.
However, every magic has a time limit. Cinderella’s magic lasts until 12:00, but this time’s magic also loses its data retention over time, so the series of copy and paste operations should be done within 2 minutes.
If you can’t, turn on “Handoff”!
This secret trick that makes you want to try it is quite a maniac function, so most of the people who have been using the iPhone for many years probably didn’t know about it at all.
By the way, it was implemented in iOS 10 on iPhone, but on Mac it is not possible to use the universal clipboard unless it is mac OS Sierra or later. If one of the terminals is not updated, copy and paste will not work, so be careful.
Also, if you have cleared all the above items but still can’t copy and paste between devices for some reason, open “General” from the “Settings” app and enable “Handoff” in “AirPlay and Handoff”. Please check if The default should be permission, but if this is turned off, it will fail.
There are likely to be many more surprising iPhone functions besides the universal clipboard introduced this time. The Adult Life editorial department will continue to introduce iPhone tricks and interesting techniques to our readers as soon as we get them.
