Screenshot to clipboard

Is there a way to have a screenshot automatically copied to the clipboard? As in: Take a screenshot, paste the result wherever. I recall that this is what used to happen.

Yes.... But that's a lot of steps... multiple screens, scrolling, etc.

What I'm asking is if there is a setting or technique so that a screen capture is immediately and automatically placed onto the clipboard.

Aaaaaack! ~ Back Tap can be configured to run a custom shortcut which takes a screenshot and copies it to the clipboard:

...But, depending on your iPhone model, you'll get some kind of "shortcut running" message captured at the top of the screenshot aswell! Perhaps there's a way to avoid that.
