Hi. I am facing this issue as well.
Tried this out and I am getting this as a response:
xcrun simctl spawn booted launchctl kickstart -k system/com.apple.pboard
Could not find service "com.apple.pboard" in domain for system
Upon further investigation, if you copy something within the simulator and try to paste it, it works within the context of the simulator. However, when u try to paste text you copied from the mac it doesn't get carried forward to the simulator and instead pastes what you copied earlier on the simulator.
I have tried the 'Automatically Sync Pasteboard' option under Edit in simulator as well but to no avail.
If i run the terminal commands as well to paste from the simulator's uuid like the following:
xcrun simctl pbpaste 99D03E66-6DA6-40AC-8E9F-98874D8F6464
xcrun simctl pbcopy 99D03E66-6DA6-40AC-8E9F-98874D8F6464
simulator copy
It would only paste what I wrote within the simulator.
This happens on iOS 26.4 simulators after updating to xCode 26.4
