Light Clipboard

Light Clipboard holds the text you retype all the time and gives you a keyboard that types it anywhere. Your email address. A phone number. The reply you send twenty times a week. An address, an account number, a block of hashtags. Save it once, then tap it into any app. HOW IT WORKS 1. Save a snippet in the app. 2. Add the Light Clipboard keyboard in Settings and switch to it with the globe key. 3. Tap a snippet. It is typed straight into whatever you are writing. No copying. No switching to another app and back. Whatever is already on your clipboard stays there. BUILT TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY The keyboard shows your snippets as tiles, two to a row, with backspace and return where you expect them. Tap a tile and the text appears. That is the whole interaction. In the app, snippets sit in a grid you can reorder by dragging. Tap one to edit it. One button pastes whatever you just copied, so saving is quick. SHORTCUTS AND SIRI Copy a snippet, or save a new one, from the Shortcuts app or by asking Siri — so a snippet can go into a message, an email or any automation you build. YOUR TEXT STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE Snippets are stored on your device and shared with the keyboard through a private app group. Nothing is uploaded. There is no account and no analytics. FREE AND PREMIUM Three snippets are free, with no time limit and no ads. If you need more: - Unlimited Monthly and Unlimited Yearly lift the limit while active, and both start with a free one-week trial - Lifetime Unlock lifts it permanently with a single payment - Slot packs add 3, 5, 10 or 20 slots, and they stack THIRTY-ONE LANGUAGES The app follows your system language and is translated into 31 of them. NO FULL ACCESS The keyboard never asks for Full Access. It runs in the restricted sandbox iOS gives a keyboard by default, where it can read the snippets you saved and nothing else. It cannot reach the network, and it never sees what you type. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS Unlimited Monthly and Unlimited Yearly are auto-renewable subscriptions, running for one month or one year and renewing automatically at the same price unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Each begins with a free trial of one week; the subscription starts, and payment is charged to your Apple Account, when the trial ends unless it is cancelled before then. Subscriptions can be managed or cancelled in Settings. Prices for your region are shown on this page and on the Premium screen in the app. Lifetime Unlock and the slot packs are one-off purchases. They do not renew. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://zhafiarov.github.io/light-clipboard-site/privacy.html
