Android 13+ restricts clipboard access for background-to-foreground transitions — the auto-detect banner never appeared on resume. Replace with a permanent Paste button that reads clipboard on tap (user interaction grants clipboard permission). Also: Export button is now icon-only (share icon) to save space.

Approving and merging — diagnosis is correct (Android 13+ getPrimaryClip() restriction on background-foreground transitions) and the fix is the right shape: a permanent Paste button that reads on tap, since user-tap grants the clipboard access the auto-detect couldn't reliably get.
Net -30 LOC + simpler control flow + works on every Android version. The icon-only Export button is a nice compactness win too.
Trusted contributor — your earlier deep-link security fix was excellent. Thanks @yyoyoian-pixel.

…file Patch release for the changes shipped via #337 (Apps Script range probe gzip-decoded body handling) and #344 (Android Paste button on 13+) plus a CI fix that restores the Win7 i686 binary missing from v1.7.9 (Cargo.lock format mismatch with Rust 1.77). The Cargo.lock version=4 (Rust 1.78+) wasn't readable by the pinned 1.77.2 toolchain on the i686 job. Workflow now regenerates the lockfile with the pinned toolchain on that job only, leaving every other target unaffected. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

…download v1.7.10 release run shipped no assets due to two CI failures stacked: 1. The i686-pc-windows-msvc job (added in v1.7.7 for Win7 support per #318) failed because Rust 1.77.2 — the last stable that produces Win7-loadable binaries — can't parse modern transitive crate manifests (`time` 0.3.47 in this case). Pinning transitives across the dep tree at every MSRV bump in our deps isn't sustainable, so the target is removed from the release matrix. Win7 32-bit users self-build per #318's instructions. 2. The `release` job hit `actions/download-artifact@v4`'s 5-retries- exhausted error on multiple artifacts. Same flake we worked around in #288 for `commit-releases`. The `release` and `telegram` jobs now use `gh run download` wrapped in a 3-attempt retry loop, mirror- ing the working pattern. v1.7.11 is the first full release after v1.7.9; ships #337 (Apps Script gzip-decoded range probe) and #344 (Android Paste button) that were tagged in v1.7.10 but never published as assets.

Bug
The "Config detected in clipboard" banner was intermittently not showing — sometimes it appeared on first app open but never on resume from another app. This made config import via clipboard unreliable.
Root cause: Android 13+ restricts
ClipboardManager.getPrimaryClip()for background-to-foreground transitions. Apps can only read clipboard during active user interaction, not on resume. The auto-detect logic read clipboard during recomposition, which silently returned empty on Android 13+ after switching apps.Fix
Replace the unreliable auto-detect banner with a permanent Paste button that reads clipboard on tap — user interaction grants clipboard access on all Android versions.
Also: Export button changed to icon-only (share icon) to keep the row compact.
