Your Mac clipboard, with a memory.

Copy as usual. This free clipboard manager keeps a visual history of every clip and pastes it straight back into the app you're using.

⌘

Instant paste

Pick a clip and press Return. Klip pastes it right where your cursor is. Hold ⇧ to paste as plain text.

◫

Every kind of clip

Text, rich text, links with page previews, images, files and hex colors, each shown the way it looks.

📌

Pinboards

Pin the things you reuse, like signatures, addresses and code snippets, onto colored boards that never expire.

⌕

Search & filter

Just start typing. Narrow results by clip type or by the app you copied from.

🏷️

Keywords

Tag a clip with your own words, like “wifi” or “invoice”, and find it in a second by typing one. Keywords stay hidden from the card and sync with the clip.

☁︎

iCloud sync

Your history and pinboards follow you across your Macs through your private iCloud account.

⎆

Quick-paste

⌘1–⌘9 pastes one of your latest clips without even looking.

✎

Preview & edit

Press Space for a big preview, or turn on press and hold in Settings: hold a card for a second to preview it, and let go to close. Edit text clips, rename them, or add keywords to find them later.

⇄

Import from Paste

Coming from Paste? Bring your history and pinboards over in one click. Paste itself is never touched.

🖱

Three-finger middle click

A bonus: a three-finger click on a Magic Mouse or trackpad becomes a middle click, so you can open links in new tabs or close tabs.

📸

Screenshots, ready to paste

Turn it on in Settings, and every screenshot you take with ⇧⌘3, ⇧⌘4 or ⇧⌘5 goes straight to your clipboard and history, and is still saved as a file.

🎨

Make it yours

Resize the cards with a slider, pick Glass or Classic card designs, and give pinned clips their own emoji icon.

Narrow it down in one click.

Hundreds of clips, and you need one. Filter by kind or by pinboard, and only what matters stays.

Klip's panel showing Clipboard History: a photo, a cookie recipe link, the Klip Orange color and a Calendar event, with pinboard tabs for Work, Personal, Recipes and Design The search bar with a Link filter chip, and only the two links left: the cookie recipe and Apple's Human Interface Guidelines The Work pinboard selected, showing only a Calendar event, a SQL query from Terminal and a Mail reply

Clipboard History shows every clip you’ve copied, newest first.

Click the filter button at the right of the search bar and choose Link. It stays as a chip until you clear it.

Click a pinboard tab, or press ⇥, to see only what you pinned there.

The feature you didn’t know you needed.

Klip remembers the right card size for every screen you use. New in Klip 1.72.

A MacBook, a wide monitor and a smaller monitor side by side, each showing Klip's clip cards sized to fit its own screen, with a checkmark above each one

I work on my MacBook, a big ultrawide, and a lower-resolution LG at work, and kept resizing the cards every time I switched screens.

Now Klip remembers Card Size and Font Size for each screen and resolution, and uses them the moment it opens there. Plug in a new screen and it’s added on its own. Fine-tune each one in Settings → Klips → Cards.

No new permission, and nothing running in the background.

We take your security seriously.

You copy passwords, keys and private messages every day. Klip is built so they stay yours. For Business & IT review · Privacy policy.

🔑

Passwords are never saved

Copies from password managers, Apple’s Passwords app and browser password fillers are skipped automatically.

🧬

Skips API keys and tokens

Turn it on and Klip ignores anything that looks like a secret key, such as GitHub, AWS, OpenAI or Stripe keys.

🧽

Securely erases deleted clips

Turn it on and a deleted clip’s contents are wiped from storage, not just removed from the list.

🚫

Ignore any app

Pick apps Klip should never record from. Keychain Access and Passwords are on the list from the start.

🖥️

Hidden from screen sharing

One switch keeps Klip’s panel and previews off screen shares and recordings, so only you see your clips.

🏠

Stays on your devices

There are no Klip servers. Your history lives on your Mac, iPhone and iPad, and no one else can see it.

☁️

Your own private iCloud

Sync uses the private database in your own iCloud account. Even the developer of Klip can’t access it.

🙈

No tracking, no accounts

No sign-in, no ads, no analytics and no crash reporters. Your data is never sold or shared.

🗑️

You stay in control

Choose how long history is kept, delete any clip, or clear the last 24 hours or everything in one go.

400+ downloads

People switch, and don’t look back.

Free, no account, no subscription. Here’s what people are saying.

I can’t believe I was paying every month for a clipboard manager.

Klip User

Klip just saved me so much time managing my Airbnb.

Klip User

Where it actually helps.

None of these is a big deal on its own. They just happen ten times a day, and Klip makes each one take a second.

↺

The copy you just overwrote

You copied a link, then copied something else, and now you need the link again. Instead of going back to find it, it's right there in your history.

⇉

Moving several things at once

Copy five pieces from one document, then paste them one after another somewhere else. No jumping back and forth between windows for every item.

📌

Text you type over and over

Terminal commands, a standard reply to an email, links you send every week. Pin them once and paste them in two keystrokes.

📱

From your iPhone to your Mac, and back

Universal Clipboard only carries the last thing you copied, and only for a short while. Copy three things on your iPhone and all three are waiting on your Mac.

⌗

Several screenshots in a row

The copy-to-clipboard screenshot shortcut keeps one image. Take another and the first is gone. With Klip, every new screenshot goes to your clipboard and stays in your history.

🔑

Not a password manager

Passwords, card numbers and form filling belong in your password manager. Klip is for everything else you copy, and it skips copies from password managers.

Bonus features

Three extras I use every day.

Become a powerhouse Mac user with these optional extras. They’re not part of Klip’s clipboard, and every one is off by default. Klip never turns them on for you. Pick only the ones you want in Settings → Bonus, and turn them off again anytime.

Klip's window switcher listing every open window, most recent first: a Teams chat, Cursor, two Finder windows with tabs, Chrome with 7 tabs, Messages, WhatsApp, Claude and Telegram A browser window with a middle click on a link opening it in a new tab and a middle click on a tab closing it, with a Magic Mouse showing three fingertips A list of apps, each with its own keyboard: Messages and WhatsApp in Spanish, Microsoft Teams and Outlook in U.S. English

Every window, one shortcut. ⌘Tab only knows apps. Press ⌃1 to see every open window, full screen ones and other desktops too, most recent first, and even jump into a Safari, Chrome or Finder tab.Why I use it every day: with a dozen Chrome windows and Cursor projects open, it’s the fastest way back to the exact window I was in a minute ago.

Miss Windows? Middle click is back. Click with three fingers on a Magic Mouse or trackpad to open a link in a new tab, or close a tab, in one click, just like the middle button on a PC mouse.Why I use it every day: I open links in new tabs all day while researching, and closing tabs with one click beats aiming for the tiny ×.

Bilingual? Each app gets its language. Give an app its own keyboard, and Klip switches to it whenever that app comes to the front, with ⌘Tab, the window switcher or a click. Apps you don’t list are left alone, and it needs no permission.Why I use it every day: I write Hebrew in WhatsApp and English in Teams, Outlook and code, and I no longer type a whole line in the wrong language.

What’s new.
