Copy/Paste Protection is a common method of protecting mobile app data from being leaked or stolen.
This Knowledge Base provides step-by-step instructions on how to use Appdome to add Copy/Paste Prevention to any mobile app – in seconds, with no code or coding.
Easily Add Copy/Paste Prevention to any App
Like all features in the Appdome Mobile App Security Suite, users can integrate Copy and Paste Prevention as a standalone feature or combine it with any other feature in Appdome’s Mobile Security Suite or with multiple 3rd party SDKs or APIs. You can configure and integrate Copy and Paste Prevention into any mobile app from Appdome’s Mobile Data Loss Prevention sub-category.
Appdome is a mobile integration platform as a service (iPaaS) that allows users to add a wide variety of features, SDKs, and APIs to Android and iOS apps. Using a simple ‘click to add’ user interface, anyone can easily integrate Copy & Paste Protection to any mobile app – instantly, no code or coding required.
With Appdome, there are no development or coding prerequisites. For example, there are no Appdome SDK, libraries, or plug-ins to implement. The Appdome technology adds Copy & Paste Protection and relevant standards, frameworks and more to the app automatically, with no manual development work at all. Using Appdome, you can add Copy/Paste Prevention to mobile apps, which prevent users from copying sensitive data from within the app and pasting it outside the app.
Prerequisites for using Copy and Paste Prevention
In order to use Appdome’s no code implementation of Data Loss Prevention with Copy and Paste Protection, you’ll need:
- Appdome account – Ideal or Higher.
- Appdome-GO access

The technology behind Build My App has two major elements – (1) a microservice architecture filled with 1000s of code sets needed for mobile integration, and (2) an adaptive code generation engine that can recognize the development environment, frameworks and methods in each app and match the app to the relevant code-sets needed to add Copy/Paste Prevention to the mobile app in seconds.
Congratulations! When your integration is complete, you will see the notice below. You now have a mobile app protected with Copy/Paste Prevention.
What to do After I Build My App?
After you successfully Build an app, you need to sign the app in order to deploy it. You can also brand or customize a Fused app on Appdome. Read this Knowledge Base article to learn what to do after you successfully Build an app. It explains both optional steps and required steps.
