Copy & Paste: Does Apple force me to use a standardized way of implementing Copy & Paste buttons/behavior?

...i mean... will they reject my app if I simply make my own COPY button at the most appropriate place in my app, for copying something to the clipboard? Or must I do that with some standardized ugly way like shaking the luxury de开发者_StackOverflow中文版vice to death for getting some copy/paste overlay?

The UIPasteboard is a documented interface, so you are free to use it as you see fit. There are no guarantees with Apple, but there is nothing I have heard about barring copy buttons. They would probably frown on copying things to the clipboard without clear user action.

There are plenty of apps that have their own "copy" buttons (see: any Twitter app). You'll be fine.
