Description

Copy as plain text right within your favourite apps!* Are you tired of pasting text into an app such as Mail, only to find that the text is too large or the wrong color? Using Plain Text Paste, you can now copy as plain text*, or remove formatting from the current clipboard content. All formatting (colors, fonts, and sizes) are automatically removed from the text in the clipboard. You can even view and edit the plain text currently in the clipboard!

How it works (easy way):
1. Highlight text
2. Tap "Share..." if available (if not, use steps below)
3. Tap "Copy Plain Text"**
4. Paste the unformatted text into any app you wish

Or (classic way):
1. Copy text from any app
2. Open Plain Text app (split view supported***)
3. The text in the clipboard is automatically converted to plain text
4. Paste the unformatted text into any app you wish

Take control of your clipboard by viewing and editing text, and clearing all formatting using Plain Text Paste.

Notes:
* The "copy within app" feature is not available in all apps. Please use "classic way" instead (see above).
** First time use: At the bottom of the pop-up, tap "More" and then enable "Copy Plain Text"
*** Word and character count available only in full-screen mode.

Brilliantly simple

This has to be the simplest app I have ever used. Only one function but it is EXACTLY the function I need over and over again in my work day. Copy text in one app (usually a PDF), click PlainTextPaste and it strips the formatting and places the unformatted text on the clipboard. Shift over to the destination (in my case, usually MSoft Office) and paste. Perfect simplicity. Many thanks.

Does exactly what I need it to do

I’ve been looking for a quick and simple way to get rid of formatting for workflows that involve me copying and pasting text between apps on my iPhone. This does the job in a no-frills way. I’m giving 3 stars because there were no instructions or onboarding help to understand how the app works, which is a big omission because it took me a little while to figure it out. Developers: you did the work, the app works well, you’re charging for the app, put some extra work in helping customers understand what to do quickly and easily. Thank you for your work!

Works as it should

No issues, i keep this app running on the background and its very easy to (multitask) swipe using Magic Keyboard between 2 apps to remove Format.
