Append To Something When Copying To Clipboard

iOS and iPadOS

Hi,
I want to perform a function on my iPhone that I can turn on and off, and I would like it to turn on and off when I tell it to. I want to copy pieces of information to the clipboard and have them automatically get pasted to the end of a document, a note, or anything I can retrieve later, even a file. I don't care if it's an app or what it is, and I want it to be simple.

Unfortunately, the clipboard doesn't really have that capability in iOS. The closest you can really get, I think, is using the share sheet and sharing to an app like Copied or Gladis or Drafts

Drafts will do this for you (along with a whole lot more), but it might be overkill for just this single task.

However, I would definitely recommend that you check it out assuming that you haven't already found another solution. This should be a single step action, in which case the free level should be all that you need.
