Where did I put that? Stowby is your personal memory for the things you know you'll need later โ but never remember where you left. Snap a photo, save a document, jot a note, or drop a link. Later, just search the way you'd think about it โ "my apartment insurance," "the wine I liked," "parking spot at the airport" โ and Stowby finds it. No folders. No tagging. No hunting through your camera roll.

UniClip

macOS forgets what you copied the moment you copy something else. Windows has had a clipboard history since 2018. UniClip is that, for the Mac โ and it follows you to your iPhone and iPad. Copy on your Mac. Paste on your phone. Search everything you have copied, going back weeks. A KEYBOARD, NOT A PANEL UniClip's iPhone keyboard is a real keyboard โ full QWERTY, emoji, autocorrect and glide typing โ with your clipboard along the top. Leave it as your default and everything you have copied is one tap away, wherever you are typing. No switching keyboards, no opening an app. Start typing something you copied earlier and it appears beside the word suggestions. That is clipboard search, without a search box. PRIVATE IN A WAY YOU CAN CHECK Everything is encrypted on your device, with a key derived from a passphrase only you know, before it is uploaded. The server stores text it has no way to read. Search runs on your device, because there is nothing on the server worth indexing. IT REFUSES TO RECORD THINGS IT SHOULDN'T Anything an app marks as confidential is never stored โ that one is not a setting, because the marker is another app asking not to be recorded. Password managers are excluded when you install it, and you can add your own. Anything shaped like an API key, a private key, a security code or a payment card stays on the device that copied it, masked in the list, and is never uploaded. HONEST ABOUT WHAT IPHONE CAN DO Your Mac captures everything you copy. iPhone and iPad save what you hand over โ through the share sheet, or the paste button in the app โ because iOS does not let any app read the clipboard on its own. Apple closed that in iOS 16, and we would rather say so than imply otherwise. Free. No account needed to use it on one device; sign in with UniAuth to sync.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: UniClip at none against Stowby's 2. Stowby's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
