so that if you switch from app A to app B, it can check your clipboard buffer for if you have a URL pasted into it and load that URL in the context of the app

example: if you copied twitter://foo/tweet/bar or https://twitter.com/foo/tweet/bar, it checks your clipboard and loads that tweet instantly

at least that's what i read over on reddit about this on r/apple

Except that letting apps randomly pull from the clipboard, where you might have copied passwords, bank account numbers, or any other sensitive information, is such an obviously unsafe idea that the person who suggested it should have been immediately sent to special privacy consciousness training.

For what? To save one "send to app" or "paste"?

At least reserve that functionality exclusively for the operating system on the grounds of "TRUST YOU? HAHAHAHAHA".

A super minor convenience feature, and enabling it allows apps to just read from my clipboard at will?

The juice ain't worth the squeeze.
