As of Android 10, only the configured default input method editor (your keyboard of + choice) and the currently focused app can access the clipboard. Apps without focus + cannot access the clipboard. This is a stricter restriction than preventing apps in + the background from accessing it, since an app in the foreground or a foreground + service cannot access it, only the foreground app that's currently focused. Clipboard + managers need to be implemented by the keyboard chosen as the default by the user.
+ +GrapheneOS previously restricted background clipboard access as a much earlier and + slightly less strict implementation of this feature. It provided a toggle for users to + whitelist clipboard managers, which is no longer needed now that keyboards are + expected to provide it.
