## What is SmartSelect for Safari?

Tired of fighting Safari's text selection? SmartSelect lets you tap to select text at the word, sentence, or paragraph level — instantly copied to your clipboard.

No more dragging handles. No more missed selections. Just tap.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Enable SmartSelect in Safari Extensions settings
2. Tap the SmartSelect icon in Safari's toolbar
3. Choose your mode: Word, Sentence, or Paragraph
4. Tap any text on the page — selected and copied instantly

CLIPBOARD HISTORY

Every clip is saved and organized by website. Browse your clips by site, then by article. Tap any clip to re-copy it. Pin important clips so they stay at the top.
