Yeah this is correct. I was able to use a Magisk module to whitelist the KDE Connect app in Android 10 and it worked fine.

This is only for rooted devices so it's not really something most people are going to be able to do.

From what I remember, apps are no longer allowed access to clipboard if they are not open and active, I.e. on the screen.

They have come up with a workaround for this. Instead of actively monitoring your clipboard in the background, there now exists a "Send Clipboard" button/intent that shares the current clipboard value with the other device(s). Works well enough for me on Android 11.

> "Send Clipboard" button

Where does that appear? Its not on the button bar that appears over a text selection.

Share menu

For me it appears in notifications as well.
