Samsung devices have a clipboard history feature which is a big security risk for people who use a password manager.

I have tried disabling the ClipboardSaveService package as described in the thread "Disabling the clipboard history on Samsung devices" but I am still able to see the clipboard history using the edge panel and the Samsung keyboard and I am not sure if disabling clipboarduiservice package will make any difference. Please tell me what other package do I need to disable so as to get rid of this non-sense clipboard history feature. Thanks.

Android Version: 12 (One UI Core 4.1)

So I found out a workaround. Please Backup everything before doing this!

Install openboard -> make it your default keyboard -> uninstall com.samsung.clipboardsaveservice using adb -> uninstall Samsung keyboard using adb and you’re done!

After doing this, copying things to clipboard doesn’t populate the edge panel clipboard list, which probably indicates that clipboard history feature is not working

OpenBoard on Play Store & FDroid

  • did you try it with other 3rd-party keyboards? i'd say the keyboard app doesn't matter, the main piece is to uninstall Samsung standard keyboard
