Pasly makes your clipboard history available across Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Keep important links, text, images, and files within reach without emailing them to yourself or relying on your devices being nearby. With Pasly Cloud, your clipboard history syncs through your private CloudKit database using Apple’s iCloud infrastructure. Pasly does not operate separate servers to store or sync your clipboard content. KEY FEATURES • Smart Clipboard History: Automatically captures text, links, images, and files you copy on your Mac. • Cross-Device Sync: Access your clipboard history across your Macs, iPhone, and iPad, even when the devices are not nearby or connected to the same network. • File Sync: Sync files copied on your Mac through CloudKit, including multiple files at once. • Smart Paste: Bring recent clipboard items directly into your regular Command-V workflow on Mac. • Paste Stack: Copy multiple items and paste them one after another. • Search & Favorites: Quickly find important clipboard items and keep frequently used content close at hand. • Live Activities & Dynamic Island: Keep recent clipboard items accessible from your iPhone Lock Screen or Dynamic Island. • Push Notifications: Get notified when new clipboard content arrives from another device. • Native Apple Experience: Built for macOS, iOS, and iPadOS with a fast, familiar interface. PRIVACY FIRST Your clipboard content is stored and synced through your private CloudKit database associated with your iCloud account. It uses Apple’s iCloud infrastructure instead of Pasly-owned clipboard sync servers. On Mac, Pasly can automatically capture supported clipboard content. Due to iOS and iPadOS system restrictions, adding new clipboard items from those devices currently requires a manual action. Make your clipboard history available wherever you work with Pasly.
