Clipper
Read full descriptionHide full description
Clipper is a privacy-first clipboard manager that keeps everything you copy — text, images, links, files, and more — organized, searchable, and securely synced across all your devices. END-TO-END ENCRYPTED Your data is encrypted on-device with AES-256-GCM before it ever leaves your phone. Keys are derived from your PIN and email using PBKDF2-SHA256 (300,000 rounds). Your Data Encryption Key is protected in the iOS Keychain behind Face ID or Touch ID. Our servers store only ciphertext — we cannot read your clipboard, ever. CLIPBOARD HISTORY Never lose something you copied. Clipper automatically captures text, rich text, HTML, URLs, images, files, and colors, and keeps a filterable, searchable history. See exactly which app each item came from. SAVED SNIPPETS Save frequently used text as reusable snippets. Organize with colored tags for instant access to templates, codes, credentials, and boilerplate. CUSTOM KEYBOARD Access your clipboard history and snippet library from any app via the Clipper keyboard extension. No app-switching — just tap and paste. CROSS-PLATFORM SYNC Sign in with Apple or your email, and your encrypted clipboard follows you across all your devices. On a new device, re-enter your PIN to decrypt and restore your history locally — no plaintext ever crosses the network. PRIVACY BY DESIGN Zero-knowledge architecture: server never sees plaintext AES-256-GCM encryption for all clipboard content PBKDF2-SHA256 key derivation (300,000 iterations) Face ID / Touch ID protection Delete your account and all data at any time SUBSCRIPTION Free plan includes core features. Pro plan unlocks unlimited history, multi-device sync, and priority support.
