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.

About

ACTIS

Turn a busy mind into a clear plan. ACTIS combines an AI to-do list, daily planner, reminders, and goals so you can capture what matters and decide what to do next. PLAN WITH AI Write naturally or dictate a voice note. ACTIS helps turn your message into task drafts, break work into subtasks, and update dates, times, priorities, and descriptions. Review and accept new drafts before adding them to your plan. Ask the AI assistant what is next or use web search to research a task. SIRI AI AND APPLE SHORTCUTS Use ACTIS App Shortcuts to add tasks, ask what is next, get a Today briefing, and start a task-linked focus timer. On eligible iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 devices, these shortcuts can be used with Siri AI. Supported Shortcuts actions can also prepare an AI day plan or suggest subtasks for you to review. Siri AI is an Apple feature in beta and currently requires English, an Apple Intelligence-capable device, and an eligible region. It is not currently available on iPhone or iPad in the EU or mainland China. Classic Siri and Shortcuts remain available where supported. AI planning actions are subject to your ACTIS plan and usage limits. SEE YOUR DAY CLEARLY Choose Grouped, Flat List, or Timeline views. Plan by day or week, set task duration, and use Apple Calendar integration to organize tasks around your appointments. KEEP THE DETAILS TOGETHER Keep notes and checklists inside tasks, connect tasks to goals, and set dates, priorities, recurring schedules, and reminders. Urgent reminder delivery depends on device support and system permissions. ACTIS brings work, study, projects, and everyday plans into one place. SUBSCRIPTION NOTICE: Some features require a separate paid subscription, such as ACTIS Plus or ACTIS Pro, including higher AI usage limits and advanced planning capacity. Subscriptions are auto-renewable and billed monthly. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase, or after any free trial ends. Subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
