Copy Paste Karo
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your iPhone clipboard holds one thing at a time. Copy a phone number right after an address, and the address is just gone. Copy-Paste Karo keeps all of it. Open the app and whatever you copied last is already saved. It sorts itself, you can search it, and it's sitting in your keyboard the next time you need to paste. KEY FEATURES • Auto-capture. Open the app and your last copy is saved. No pasting it in by hand. • Sorts itself. Links, emails, phone numbers, hex codes and code snippets land in the right category with no tagging from you. • Pinning. The addresses, meeting links and commands you reuse daily stay up top. • Your own categories. Give them a name, an emoji and a colour. 12 hues, 8 shades each. • Search that reads everything. Titles and content both, narrowed by pinned, recent or category. • A Trash, not a delete key. Removed snippets wait there until you empty it, so changing your mind costs nothing. • Five themes in light and dark: Forest, Ocean, Clay, Slate, Berry. THE KEYBOARD (iPhone) Turn the keyboard on once in iOS Settings and your snippets appear inside any app you type in: Messages, Mail, Notes, Safari, wherever. Tap one and it drops into the field. Pinned items sit first, your categories run along the top, and everything stays in sync with the app. PRIVACY Everything stays on your phone. No account, no sign-in, nothing synced anywhere, no analytics. Left alone, the app never goes online. The one online feature, link previews, stays off until you switch it on, and even then it only loads the page of a link you already saved. It never talks to a server of ours. Your snippets live in a database on your device, and the keyboard reads them from a private container. TERMS OF USE Copy-Paste Karo Pro offers optional auto-renewable subscriptions.
