Copy and Paste for iPhone

August 21st, 2008 | by admin |

We iPhone users know exactly how difficult it is for us to survive without having copy and paste functionality. Apple does have this under consideration but according to them its not a priority.

Perhaps with the new open-source community project called OpenClip, it will be possible for users to use copy and paste functionality among some iPhone apps without begging Apple to add this feature to the firmware.
This is how it works, when a developer adds the OpenClip framework to an iPhone app, that app gains copy and paste functionality. So basically it all comes down to how willing and supportive the iPhone app developers are. GeekBrief has also made a video demo of the copy/paste functionality being used within some native iPhone apps.

The OpenClip framework does not violate the iPhone SDK Agreement in any way so developers don’t need to worry about getting busted by Apple. The best of all is that the OpenClip framework is non-profit and open source.

Here you can see a list of all upcoming apps for iPhone that support copy and paste functionality.
