CLIP+ clipboard manager for iOS supports multitasking 

It's a bit tedious having to copy text on mobile. CLIP+ hopes to ease that suffering for you. The app now works with both the split-screen and slide-over features for the iPad on iOS 9. And when you save a text, you can find it using Spotlight. The app also uses Safari shared links extension so all URLs you save to the app will open directly on Safari. It'll ignore text that appear to be passwords though. Also, when you save the URL of a GIF, it shows up on the app or your notfication center widget and loops endlessly until you decide what to do with it.

Facebook's 'On This Day' feature now helps you filter out unwanted memories

A loss of a loved one, a failed relationship, these are some things you don't want to be reminded of. But Facebook's "On This Day" feature can sometimes unearth unpleasant memories. Thankfully, you now have more control to filter some of these out. The feature gets new options that lets you either filter out specific people or dates or both of these. This will prevent any posts, photos, statuses you've been tagged in, date you friended someone, and big life events that involve these people.
