    [SOLVED] KDE Connect URL and clipboard sharing not working

    If I copy text in Kubuntu, I can paste it in my Android phone, but not vice versa.

    I'm fairly certain I used to be able to do this in 18.04.

    Anyone else experiencing this, or know how to fix it? I have already tried un-pairing the phone and desktop, then re-pairing them. No change.

    It is a known change in Android 10, where clipboard sharing was disabled. I'll assume you have that on your phone?
    Make sure you have the latest version of Kdeconnect on your phone, at least 1.14.2, where they figured out a workaround. It looks like it still may be only available by signing up for the beta version on the Play Store.

      Yes, my phone just recently "upgraded" to Android 10, but all I've noticed is that I have a system-wide dark theme now, and lots of bugs :/

      I see it now. You have to open the KDE Connect Android notification, and choose "Send Clipboard" or "Send Files." Dangit, Google.

      Thank you for your help.
