SwiftKey Beta Adds Support For Cloud Clipboard Sync With Windows

One of the most used keyboard apps for smartphones is SwiftKey. In the latest beta release of SwiftKey, Microsoft is adding support for cloud clipboard sync with Windows.

Yes. With this new addition, SwiftKey users will be able to perform cross-platform copy/paste functions. This nifty feature will make the day-to-day life of users who switch between Android and Windows platforms, much easier.

Gboard restricted clipboard access to background apps that aren’t keyboard app, with Android 10. However, there are a few third-party apps that let you sync clipboard contents across different devices.

Cut to now, Microsoft’s SwiftKey keyboard app brings this as an in-built feature. This negates the need of depending on any third-party app and adds to the user’s convenience.

Since, this feature is available on the SwiftKey beta version of the app, there are high hopes that if things turn out good, Microsoft will bring it on the stable version as well.

Microsoft SwiftKey is introducing this new cloud clipboard syncing feature with Windows in the latest beta version v7.8.5.3 of the app. So, if you want to get started using it, you need to download this beta version.

SwiftKey beta adds a new “Clipboard” entry in the Settings menu of the app

According to Android Police, after installing the latest SwiftKey beta version, you need to head over to the Settings menu of the app. Click on the “Rich Input” section and here you will find a new entry called “Clipboard.”

Make sure you have already signed in with your Microsoft account, otherwise the app will ask you to do that under the “Clipboard” entry.

Then, you will be presented with a toggle titled “Sync clipboard history”. Enabling this toggle will allow you to copy and paste text between Windows and Android devices.

The below section will show all the currently copied text snippets. These will be deleted after an hour, and only the items that you pin will remain.

Besides, to take full advantage of this SwiftKey cloud clipboard sync feature, you need to activate it on your Windows PC too. To do that, you need to navigate to System > Clipboard.

Alternatively, you can also search for “clipboard” in the Settings app. Since only foreground apps and keyboard apps will be able to access clipboard content, after the Android 10 update, this is a nifty feature introduced by Microsoft.

If you are a SwiftKey beta user, then you can download the latest app from the Play Store, or else you can grab the APK file from trusted third-party sources such as APKMirror.
