Hello there, any thoughts on Android Q removing the features of observing the clipboard on background?
TonyTang
Hello Mark.
Mark M.
I am not terribly surprised that they made a change, though it is the sort of thing that they might have been able to handle with a permission
TonyTang
I just happened to come here when I was told that my subscription is to expire.
TonyTang
Then I noticed that your office hour is open
Mark M.
yes, this was rescheduled from Tuesday -- I do not normally hold one on Friday nights
Mark M.
(Friday nights where I am, anyway)
TonyTang
I tried to keep an eye on that. But so far they did not promise that a permission style will be added.
Mark M.
I cannot think of any case where something had been available, was banned, and then later became available again with a permission
TonyTang
I am concerned about this brutal removal as I will break my app AnyCopy.
Mark M.
yeah, that's why IMHO this should have been handled with a permission -- there are valid uses
Mark M.
but, they didn't ask for my opinion :-)
TonyTang
Another quick feedback for the subscription email is that the link is not working.
Mark M.
which link?
TonyTang
View paste
https://wares.commonsware.com/app/subscribe.
Mark M.
oh, yeah, I missed a path segment
Mark M.
I'll get that fixed -- thanks!
