Paste from clipboard doesn't work in iOS simulator run on MacBook with M1 chip
See original GitHub issueSummary
Pasting from clipboard doesn’t work in an app run in Expo Go. It’s not an issue with the simulator because I can copy and paste text in other apps in the simulator e.g. Safari. I can also copy and paste things from outside the simulator to Safari in the simulator. It’s possible to select a text in my app, copy it, and past it to another app in the simulator or to my VS Code outside. The problem occurs only in simulators with iOS > 13.7, so the workaround is to install an older version.
I’m using MacBook Pro M1

This is an Xcode/iOS simulator issue from what I’ve gathered. I am googling this issue and have noticed that it worked in the past. It doesn’t seem to be Expo-specific but users are complaining about this in Apple forums as well, and to this day it’s still an outstanding issue. I don’t know if it’s fixed in the latest Xcode 14 beta though. Users in the forums are saying it generally works in iOS 13 simulators but 14+ doesn’t. Some say pasting twice helps (which I’ve had to do as well) but that stopped working in recent versions.
same issue here.
