Since Android 10, I haven't been able to find a replacement for my clipboard syncing... Join works around the limitations Google put in place... but the workflow seems too cumbersome. For instance, my last solution was Alt-C. #1: Copy text on Android device #2: Press Alt-V on PC (done) The workflow with Join seems to be... #1: Copy text on Android device #2: Click bubble #3: Select PC device to send to #4: Click notification from the Win10 app #5: Click the text in the window the notification opens #6: Return to other application and press Ctrl-V (done) Is this really the quickest workflow? I feel like steps 4 and 5 are unnecessary. The rest are probably harder to streamline.
According to this thread you posted in, this doesn't work for Windows 10. https://forum.joaoapps.com/index.php?threads/windows-10-app-android-clipboard-sync.30734/ Enabling the setting you mention just creates a toast saying "You don't have any other devices yet." I read a lot of threads where you say the UWP platform prevents you from doing many things. I was toying with the idea of just making a Windows service to handle the PC side for me, but the workflow Android side wouldn't be ideal and it would be one way.
Oh, you're totally right, I'm sorry! I forgot about that limitation... You don't happen to use Chrome do you? That would allow you to use the extension that has less restrictions...
I'm not a tab hoarder, so I try to not keep my browser open all of the time... but I also don't use Chrome. I made it a Sunday project to make a WinForms webservice for clipboard access. A Tasker profile/task easily took care of the Android part of it. The reverse direction can still be handled by Alt-C.
