Stop emailing yourself. Copy Bin moves text and images between your devices through a short, human-typeable link — no account, no pairing, no cables. Paste anything on one device, then open the same short bin code on another (e.g. livx.cc/copy/ab12). The code is short enough to type by hand on any phone, tablet, or computer. That's it. HOW IT WORKS - Paste or type text, or drop in an image — it syncs instantly to your bin - Open the same short bin code on any other device to grab it - Share directly from any app via the system share sheet — text and images sync straight to your bin, without even opening the app - Markdown renders as a live preview: headings, lists, links, code blocks - Bins auto-expire 24 hours after the last edit — nothing lingers PRIVATE BY SIMPLICITY - No account, no login, no tracking, no ads - Nothing is kept longer than 24 hours - Bins are readable by anyone with the code, so they're perfect for quick transfers — not for secrets GREAT FOR - Sending a link from your computer to your phone (or back) - Moving a photo to a device without cables or cloud drives - Drafting a note on one device, finishing on another - Sharing a snippet with a colleague — just tell them the code Copy Bin also works in any browser at livx.cc/copy — the app and the web tool share the same bins.
