I like parcel tracking apps detecting a tracking number in clipboard

Is it also fine that tracking apps read all your passwords in the clipboard?

Agreed that this downside is not worth the convenience. But, I think iOS 14 provides a great solution to this problem; you can pattern match against the contents of the clipboard without reading the contents. Then you can always read it if it matches.
