Comments and Reviews
It may not have been updated in a while, but Clipy is absolutely superb. Using a clipboard manager has really improved my workflow and I cannot imagine working without one.
Other clipboard managers I previously tested were bloated or under-perform. Clipy is lightweight with a simple and straightforward interface. I found it very easy to setup and organise plenty of snippets.
Clipy is a viable open source continuation of perhaps the best clipboard manager ever written, ClipMenu, which has worked perfectly across seven version of OS X/macOS without an update. ClipMenu has stopped working so well on M1 Macs as it's not native. Neither is the main build of Clipy but ian4hu's build is: https://github.com/ian4hu/Clipy
Clipy is also minimalist, also reliable, written in Swift and not as some unwieldy electron app, connecting to an unnecessary and unwelcome cloud.
The paid versions of Mac clipboards suffer from too many features, poor coding and wretched continuity (usually they last for two or three versions of OS X and then disappear). Clipy is what you want. And if you've never had a multiclipboard, your life is about to change for the better.
A superb clipboard management tool, and a worthy upgrade to ClipMenu.
If you find yourself continually pasting the same items over and over again, just save them as snippets and hit the hot key to paste them! Saves masses of time.
Ever pasted something and then accidentally hit Copy again, and had to go back and find the original? Clipy gives you a history, so you can just go back to the previous entry, or the one before that or before that…
Also gives support for images, hex colours, pdfs, and more, so you're always clear on what you're pasting!
Highly recommended.
