Read full description

ClipBoard keeps everything you copy in one place and lets you paste it anywhere with its custom keyboard. Copy a piece of text, a link, or an image, then open ClipBoard or its keyboard and the clip is saved to your history. Search it, organize clips into collections, and pin favorites. When you need something back, tap a clip to copy it, drag it into another app, or paste it straight from the ClipBoard keyboard without switching apps. KEY FEATURES • Clipboard history: every clip you save, in one searchable list • ClipBoard keyboard: paste any saved clip into any app • Snippets: save phrases you type often and insert them from the keyboard with one tap • Instant search across everything you've saved • Collections: organize clips into groups that fit how you work • Favorites: keep the important clips a tap away • Drag and drop: drag a clip into any app on iPhone and iPad • Share extension: save text, links, and images from any app's share sheet • Scan Text: capture printed text with your camera, recognized on your device • Link titles (optional): saved links keep their page titles • iCloud sync (optional): your clips and snippets on every device you own HOW CAPTURE WORKS iOS does not let apps read the clipboard in the background. ClipBoard saves the current clipboard each time you open the app or its keyboard, and you can save anything else through the share sheet. Nothing is captured while ClipBoard is closed. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your clips stay on your device. No account, no tracking, and nothing you copy is sent to us. The keyboard reads only the clips you have saved. It never logs what you type. If you turn on sync, it goes through your personal iCloud. CLIPBOARD PRO Your first 10 clips are free, with search, the keyboard, snippets, and iCloud sync included. ClipBoard Pro unlocks all of your history after that. Choose a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase.

A-DISK is a local file manager and backup tool. No account is required, and your files do not need to be uploaded to a cloud service. KEY FEATURES • Browse, copy, move, rename, delete, and organize files and folders • Add a USB drive, iCloud Drive, or another external location with the system Files picker • Back up and restore photos, videos, contacts, and documents • Preview images, videos, audio, and text files • Protect files with Secure Encryption or Fast Lock • Save photos, videos, and recordings to the location you choose • Protect the app with a launch password and biometric authentication iOS EXTERNAL STORAGE On iPhone and iPad, A-DISK uses the system file picker so you can explicitly authorize a folder. Without a physical drive, you can select a test folder in Files and use the same workflow. iOS does not provide a general App Store API for directly ejecting a USB drive; disconnection is managed by the system Files app. PRIVACY File processing takes place between your device and the locations you authorize. The current version contains no advertising, behavioral analytics, cross-app tracking, or cloud upload service. See the privacy policy for permission and local-storage details.
