Read string from clipboard

Question

How can I read a string from the clipboard and write it on a button\'s title? I can copy a string to the clipboard with:

UIPasteboard.generalPasteboard().string         


        

Answer 1

Just read it back into a variable like this:

let pasteboardString: String? = UIPasteboard.general.string
if let theString = pasteboardString {
    print("String is \(theString)")
}
