iOS 9's [UIPasteboard generalPasteboard].string
will become null when the app is in the background running a background task or Today widget.
Can't we retrieve a clipboard text in the background any more?

Can you explain where do you launch generalPasteboard?.
This is what I would do:
In your app delegate's applicationdidBecomeActive method put in this code:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"appDidBecomeActive" object:nil];
Next , in your current active view controller's init method subscribe to the notification.
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:@selector(returnFromBg)
name:@"appDidBecomeActive"
object:nil];
- (void)returnFromBg {
UIPasteboard *appPasteBoard = [UIPasteboard generalPasteboard];
yourTextField.text = [appPasteBoard string;
}
PS Don't forgot to remove the observer when the view controller is removed:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self];
