Using the Universal Clipboard to Copy and Paste Text, Images and Videos Between iOS Devices and Macs
Submitted by AppleVis on Tuesday, September 20, 2016.

In this podcast, David Woodbridge demonstrates the Universal Clipboard facility available on devices running iOS 10 or later, or macOS Sierra or later. If you now copy text, images, or video to the clipboard on one device, it should be automatically available to paste on any other device that uses the same Apple ID.
Note that for Universal Clipboard to work your device must support the Continuity feature and have Hand-off enabled. This Apple Support page provides more information on Continuity and Hand-off.

HI. I googled how to get the universal text copy and paste to work, and they said you need to have blue tooth enabled on both devices. If you haven't already tried this, give it a go. This worked for me.
