# Adjusting "Allow Paste" permissions in iOS

In iOS16 and later, users will be “Asked” via pop-up if they want to paste information from the clipboard from one App to another.

:::info
**Note:** This setting affects whether Buffer can paste from your clipboard without prompting—useful when copying captions or media.
:::

If you prefer to bypass this pop-up, you can permanently allow Buffer to paste from your clipboard using a few steps:

1. Open the ***Settings*** app.
2. Scroll until you see ***Buffer,*** then tap to open.
3. Tap ***Paste from other apps***.
