A delightfully simple space for those text snippets you copy and paste a bunch. We've all got those things we keep copy and pasting from notes. Insta hashtags, the pancake recipe your friends always ask about, meaningful quotes, top 10 lists, and so on. Clipbud makes finding and copying any of those a breeze. Simply open the app, tap on the one you want, and it's on your clipboard ready to be shared. COPYING IS A BREEZE Clipbud puts any text you add to the app a tap away. There's no limit to the length of the snippet either. Paragraphs and line breaks are kept for readability. SEARCH IS EASY Clipbud's search makes finding whatever you need lightning fast. RECENTS Clipbud has a row for things you've copied recently, making finding them again even easier. FINE-GRAIN CLIPBOARD SETTINGS By default Clipbud will only read your clipboard when you press tap the "Paste" button. You can change how and when Clipbud accesses your clipboard in Settings. Clipbud can only access your clipboard while using the app, and nothing is stored unless you say so. DELIGHTFUL INTERFACE Sounds, haptics, and fun patterns that move with your device means there's a lot to enjoy when using Clipbud. TRULY PRIVATE All data is stored on your device and backed up to your iCloud account. No one else has access to it. There are no ads, trackers, or third-party APIs of any sort.

Paste Manager's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
