  @Cyberience, Copy Paste can be used with the iOS version only using BHWax. This is if you are looking at inter-app copy paste, if you want to simply use copy paste in your own app, then you can do that for both Android and iOS easily. So not clear on what do you want to do.
  
  Here's an old video of using Copy Paste
  
  the article that explained this and more features can be found http://howto.oz-apps.com/2012/12/objective-gideros-extending-to-include.html this was written about 9 months ago.

  Yes cross app, if I have copy and paste in my app, so say copy text, and then switch to another app to paste, this is OS level. Would be odd to have the function available and then Android users can not use it.
  Would it not make sense to add this to the application stack, as it is a standard across many platforms.

  @Cyberience, nothing is available stock out of the box. The example above was made using a 3rd party library and custom code. Since BHWax is not available for the Android, this is not available for the same.
  
  Who knows, maybe BHWax might not be compatible anymore with newer versions of iOS and might stop working altogether.

  There could be an opportunity here to build add on API for OS based common functionality, I know Photo album, and camera are common required hardware interfaces, but OS functions are a need for many too, such as, Voice recognition or Text to speech.
  I wouldnt mind paying for it either. and it would escalate Gideros into the realms of big business with developers taking it more seriously.
