I assume you are on Android 10 or above. For Android 10 and above phone will not automatically send the clipboard to desktop. The workaround for this is expand your kde notification there will be a text button called "Send Clipboard" you can do via that

KDE Connect notification on Android 10

I'm on Android 10, Huawei EMUI 11.

The KDE Connect notification doesn't look expandable.

Same issue here suddenly. No changes to OS or app in months. :/

Even this option doesn't work on Android 14 (Galaxy s23 ultra with one UI 6.0). I can not send clipboard to my ubuntu (with Gsconnect 50)
