have you seen your "clip tray lately" may be a password issue

[bmandrews7]

Hello All,
I am posting this to 1. make a note of it for anyone else that uses a password app and 2. to get any info from anybody else that might have already found a way to better manage this.

quick way to check your "clip tray" go to an app that allows you to enter text hold down in the space as if you were going to paste something then select the clip tray. Then you will see everything you recently copied or i.e. text, photos, even screenshots. The only way I have to clear them out is by press and holding one of the items then it allows you to "x" them out. This is not cleared with a reboot. So if you have had your phone for a while your clip tray might be large.

My issue: I use a password app on my phone which allows me to copy username and password to my clip board for a brief moment and then it clears itself out. The problem is although my clip board is cleared the "clip tray" is not. So I have to go in and clear them manually. I believe this will be an issue with any security app not just mine. Please reply if your security app doesn't have this issue. I'm using Keepassdroid

Has anyone seen this issue.

didn't think to check earlier but if are using the guest account(I'm sure everyone has that setup /s ). If you have an app on there that allows for text editing the clip tray can be seen in there as well.

Thanks for that tidbit. Will have to keep an eye on clip tray to see if there could be issues with it and some sensitive data.
