For example:
- You will need to enable the keyboard in the Keyboards list.

Currently, it only copies a whole input. If the input has 200 characters, it will copy the whole text. In future releases, it will be able to copy substrings, indeed. This release can't copy strings from webpages or html, it only copies input fields.
It uses localStorage as a clipboard and it would make you able to copy strings from one app to another. I have tried it between a the mail client and a notes app.
In future releases, it will be able even to copy non-string objects.
