Hello 🙂

After commit efae488 corrected an inverted permission check in canAccessLogs(), the “Send Clipboard” button no longer appears for most users. It has been replaced by a menu entry.

As sending clipboards is easily my most used feature in the app, I think the “Send Clipboard” button should be visible to all users as a button rather than one-more-tap-away in a menu.

Could it be that the intent was to gate the clipboard auto-sync background feature, rather than the manual sync button?

If you concur, I will open a bug for it.

Thank you for your attention 🙂
