Your clipboard forgets everything the moment you copy something new. ClipKeep is the clipboard manager that remembers it all — every link, snippet, code block and note you save stays put in tidy, searchable buckets, ready to copy back with a single tap. Most notes apps make you dig through folders. ClipKeep is built for one job: save what you copy, then find it and paste it back in seconds. It auto-sorts each clip as text, link, code or color, keeps your reusable snippets one tap away, and works fully offline so nothing ever leaves your phone. WHAT YOU GET - Save any text clip into color-coded buckets and copy it back in one tap - Auto-detection that tags each clip as text, link, code or hex color - A reusable snippets library so you never retype the same reply twice - Full-text search across every clip, note and category at once - Pin the clips you use most so they stay at the top - Export everything to plain text anytime — your data stays yours PERFECT FOR - Developers stashing code, tokens and command lines - Writers and support agents reusing canned replies and boilerplate - Anyone juggling links, addresses and confirmation codes - People who copy something, lose it, and have to hunt it down again WHY NOT JUST USE NOTES? Notes apps bury your snippets in folders and make you scroll. ClipKeep keeps every clip a single tap from your fingertips, auto-organizes it, and pastes it straight back — no formatting, no hunting, no retyping. PRIVACY Everything stays on this device. No accounts, no servers, no tracking, no cloud. Your clips never leave your phone. FULL ACCESS ClipKeep is free to start with room for your first clips. Unlock ClipKeep Pro for unlimited clips, unlimited buckets, the full snippets library, search and export. Choose the plan that fits: a weekly pass, a yearly plan, or a one-time lifetime unlock. Payment is charged to your Apple ID; subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends, and you can manage or cancel anytime in your App Store settings. Save your first clip today and stop retyping the things you copy every day.
