Answer 1

Check out the Clipboard Manager in Android

Clipboard Contents is lightweight clipboard manager for Android. The app can read contents from the clipboard history so that they can be copied into the clipboard again. Then you can edit, delete, and even share the links. Furthermore, while sharing links you can also shorten them provided URL is installed. The app automatically detects any links in the contents and provides relevant options so that you’ll be able to open or share them directly from the device.
