Happens any time I have a photo from the photos app copied in the clipboard. Other menu elements cause it too.

I have to tap copy from the quick menu(with nothing selected) to empty my clipboard to make it stop.

I reproduced that. It is a system alert displayed every time app is checking if there is any image in pasteboard.
We will try to somehow fix that asap.

update:
Apple introduced this alert in iOS 13 for privacy reasons:
https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/ios-14-notifies-users-when-an-app-or-widget-reads-your-clipboard.2242451/

It seems it cannot be disabled.
Artstudio can create new layer or image from clipboard so it must access to pasteboard, that's why the alert is displayed.

Is it really absolutely necessary to check the clipboard so often? Why not only when a cut/paste/copy action is performed?

99% of the time I’m not opening the quick menu to do anything with the clipboard and I have to wait for the pop-up to go away to access tools in the top bar again.

Artstudio is checking clipboard to enable/disable "Paste" menu item.
If clipboard is empty, Paste is disabled.

I found another method for that, so alert problem will be fixed in the next udpate.

Version 3.0.19 is available, please confirm the alert is gone.
