# VS Code Server Vim Clipboard ## Metadata **Status**:: #x **Zettel**:: #zettel/permanent **Created**:: [[2024-01-05]] **Topic**:: [[♯ Visual Studio Code]] ## Synopsis Browsers in iOS have very strict limitation on the clipboard usage. It's not allowed to read clipboard silently except users themselves pressing <kbd>Command</kbd>+<kbd>V</kbd>. So when the option `vim.useSystemClipboard` is enabled, all the vim paste actions will cause the following error: > Unable to read from the browser's clipboard. Please make sure you have granted access for this website to read from the clipboard. The solution is disable `vim.useSystemClipboard`. To enable it in desktop, disable the option sync: ```json { "settingsSync.ignoredSettings": [ "vim.useSystemClipboard" ] } ```
