This is through iCloud. You have to be logged into your same iCloud device
across all of your devices for this to work. It's called the Universal
clipboard feature. You have to be running MacOS Yosemite or later or iOS 10 or
later I believe.

Hi John,
Can you elaborate on how this data gets from one device to another? Do you
use air drop? Never used that before. I just have my calendar, contacts and
reminders synched with my phone and let the magic happen. Thanks.
Best,
Leslie

You just use the gesture to copy from the iPhone and then on the Mac, go
to wherever it is you want to paste the info and use the usual command-v to
paste. From the opposite perspective, command-c on the Mac to copy and on the
iPhone, use the edit menu on the rotor and select, paste, and double tap to
paste the items from the Mac clipboard. I will often do this with text
information I want to exchange between devices.

And remember that is the universal pasteboard as well. So, you can copy
from the iPhone and paste to your Mac or vice versa.

Another gesture you could try is: use three fingers and tap very quickly
four times. VoiceOver should say copied to paste board.
Do note though: that this will copy everything though that VoiceOver will
speak.
What I mean is that even if VO read the WiFi password, if you've got
anything else on that line of text. VO is going to copy everything
though. Just something to keep in mind. You can always paste it, sort the
editing out and re copy the info you want. In which case, you may as well
just copied it your way nevertheless, it's a handy gesture for copying a
number, email etc.
Hope this additional info is of some help to you.

Hi Sarah, Actually, it did work. I ended up using text selection in the
rotor since I don’t know how to do the pinch gesture to select text the
old way.

I don't think you will be able to past the test in the wifi field
unless you use a bt keyboard, at least I have never gotten that to work.
Take care.

Hello,
I need to copy and paste a somewhat long WiFi password. I know how to
use the text selection option in the rotor, but it seems like that
might not be the most reliable way since the option does not always
come up in certain situations. Therefore, would it be better to set
the rotor to characters or words and use the pinch gesture to select
the desired text? I have never selected text this way before, so if
this is the fastest way, could someone explain how to do it?
Kind Regards,
Kelsey Nicolay
