Clipboard history #223
Description
Context
Someone in the Discord posted this in the feature requests section, so I'm also posting it here.
One thing that I miss from MessagEase is having a clipboard history, which is brought up by swiping back and forth where paste normally is. I keep accidentally overwriting my current clipboard with e.g., a huge WIP message with e.g., a link that I'm sending to a friend.
Describe your suggested feature
An area that shows all the copy/clipboard history.
Other details
As of Android 10, unless your app is the default input method editor or is the app that currently has focus, your app cannot access clipboard data. So clipboard management is hard unless it's built into the keyboard you're using...
