I've always been irritated by the lack of control on whether apps can inspect the clipboard or not.

The bpost app (Belgian national post) immediately reads the clipboard when it gets opened and I hate this behaviour with a passion. While on the other hand it throws a fit if it ever detects an unlocked bootloader, root access, "suspicious" apps or whatever.

I ended up confining it to an outdated phone with a stock OS along with the bank and identity apps that I cannot avoid. I digress, but the original cause of my irritation was indeed lack of control on my clipboard that ia had noticed thanks to that small notification.

For what it's worth, grapheneos allows you to control this permission.

Why would the Belgian post hack your phone?!? Of all the things to be suspicious of, that one's low on my list.

Yeah agreed. The Toast notification is terrible UX. Thanks for letting me know an app already read my address/CC number/privatemessage/image.
