Releases & Updates

The shelf opens faster and scrolls smoothly. Background iCloud sync no longer blocks the screen every few seconds, and only the cards that change are redrawn.

The first cards in History keep their previews when you close the shelf, so they appear at once the next time you open it.

After you scrolled the shelf, website, image and other previews could stay as a pulsing icon and never load. They now load after every scroll, with a trackpad or a mouse.

Clipso could quit when a website preview failed to load.

Deleting a clip left its stored content behind in iCloud Drive forever, so the Clipso folder only ever grew. One library had built up 54 MB of clip content while just 5.5 MB was still in use. Clipso now reclaims content no clip refers to any more.

Content is only removed once no clip refers to it and it is at least a day old, so material another Mac has just saved is never mistaken for leftovers.

Copying a file saved only its location, which meant nothing on a second Mac and left a blank document card there. Clipso now captures a preview image with the clip, so the same card with the same preview appears on every synced Mac.

With iCloud sync on, Clipso no longer also saves macOS's Handoff copy of what you just copied, so one copy produces exactly one card on each Mac. With iCloud sync off, Handoff copies are saved as before.

A single clip with an unreadable payload could stop every sync pass and leave a permanent failure banner. That clip is now skipped, and keeps its already-synced copy instead of being treated as deleted.

Clips are no longer treated as duplicates just because they share the same pixel dimensions, so two screenshots of the same size are both kept.

Clipso no longer displays macOS's internal Handoff staging identifiers (long UUID-like file or folder names) as a clip's title. A real image at a staging path is now shown as an Image with its real dimensions.

Handoff-sourced clips now sync through Clipco's own iCloud sync instead of being excluded, so two Macs that each capture their own copy of the same transfer converge on one consistent card.

When merging duplicate clips, Clipco now prefers whichever copy actually resolved to real content over a raw placeholder, regardless of which was captured or synced more recently.

Restored real thumbnails for copied files and images instead of the generic document icon, caused by an overly strict sandbox readability check rejecting reads macOS actually grants for pasteboard-provided files.

A single Handoff copy no longer creates multiple clipboard history cards. Clipso now recognizes a raw Handoff placeholder and its resolved file/image as the same copy and keeps one card, upgrading it in place as richer content arrives.

Prevented sync failures caused by missing or evicted local payload files. Missing payload uploads are safely bypassed, allowing folder and clip metadata to synchronize smoothly across devices.

Reordered the synchronization pipeline to hydrate available iCloud Drive payload blobs before state snapshot generation.

Automatically restores cached payloads for existing and migrated clips on application launch.

Fixed synchronization so renaming existing or standard default folders (like Code Snippets, Images & Screenshots, etc.) propagates seamlessly to all Macs on the same Apple ID.

Fixed category normalization so renaming folders to custom names (such as "My Emails" or "Temp") is never overridden or reverted.

Updated category equality checks to detect title, color, and hex color changes immediately across connected devices.

Added a 50-item clipboard limit in Preferences and Onboarding for lighter storage footprint, and removed the unused 1,500 clips option.

Selecting the System theme in Preferences now immediately applies the system light or dark mode to open windows without having to restart or reopen Settings.

Fixed an issue where renaming or adjusting folders on one Mac could get overwritten by the local state on another Mac. Folder names and organization now sync seamlessly across all Macs sharing an Apple ID.

Eliminated a crash caused by SwiftData model faulting during source icon retrieval on shelf cards by adding in-memory icon caching.

Integrated NSMetadataQuery ubiquity notifications to detect remote clipboard and folder changes within seconds.

Added safe transient caching for application icons, drastically reducing disk operations and rendering latency.

Keep your clipboard history and custom folders seamlessly synchronized across multiple Macs in real time without needing to restart the app.

Clips already transferred via macOS Universal Clipboard stay local on the receiving device to avoid redundant cloud sync loops.

Resolved an application crash caused by premature payload faulting and deleted item access during shelf card context menu rendering.

Moved Account management directly below Privacy in Preferences for cleaner and more intuitive navigation.

Optimized clip representation caching to reduce disk reads and eliminate main-thread hitches while browsing the shelf.

Substantially reduced CPU and memory footprint when copying large batches of high-resolution images and multi-page PDFs.

Cached image thumbnails and text excerpts in memory for smooth, stutter-free horizontal shelf scrolling.

Prevented unnecessary disk decryption when inspecting clip representation metadata on the shelf.

Quickly isolate specific kinds of clips by typing #link, #image, #file, or #code in the search bar.

Added rich metadata extraction and album artwork display for Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube links.

Added customizable hotkeys to toggle the shelf, cycle through folders, and paste directly as plain text.

Create color-coded folders to organize your most valuable clips, project assets, and code snippets with drag-and-drop.

Choose between compact, regular, and spacious card sizes to perfectly match your display scale and preferences.

Upgraded sync infrastructure to support folder organization and seamless multi-Mac continuity.

Automatic detection of passwords from password managers (1Password, Bitwarden, Apple Passwords) with optional auto-purge.

Drag clips directly from the shelf into Slack, Xcode, Figma, Mail, Terminal, and Finder.

Resolved an issue where the shelf could appear on the wrong display when using external monitors.

Quickly summon your clipboard shelf at the bottom edge of your screen with customizable hotkeys or menubar access.

Seamlessly save and preview text, formatted links, images, files, color codes, and syntax-highlighted code snippets.

Zero tracking, local-first storage with on-device payload encryption ensuring your sensitive data never leaves your control.

Filter by type or press ⌘ K to find any copied item from days or weeks ago in milliseconds.

Integrated update mechanism ensures you always receive secure, user-approved updates effortlessly.
