SwiftCopy’s clipboard history with pinned text and links above recent copies, including a chart, a HEX colour and web links.

How it works

  1. Copy as usual

    SwiftCopy saves the text, links, images and colours you copy. You don’t have to do anything different.

  2. Open SwiftCopy

    Click the SwiftCopy icon in the menu bar at the top of your screen, or press ⌘⇧C (Command-Shift-C). Type a word to search everything you’ve copied.

  3. Pick it and paste

    Click the item you want. It’s back on your clipboard, ready to paste with ⌘V (Command-V) like always.

Find anything you’ve copied

Copied something new and lost the link you needed? Open SwiftCopy and it’s still there. Type a few letters to search, then click the item to copy it again.

Pin the things you paste all day. Pinned items stay when you clear the rest.

Know what you’re pasting

Not sure it’s the right one? Press ⌘Y (Command-Y) to take a closer look. See the first lines of long text, or an image at its real size, before you paste.

Text, images, colours

Show only text, images or colours with the buttons at the top of SwiftCopy, or press ⌘T. Copy a colour code like #2E6EEC and you’ll see a swatch of that colour. Formatted text keeps its formatting, and images keep their full quality.

Your clipboard history stays on your Mac.

SwiftCopy saves your copied items on your Mac. There’s no account to create.

  • Apps such as password managers can mark copies as private. SwiftCopy skips those items.
  • Choose which apps SwiftCopy ignores.
  • Clear your clipboard history. Pinned items stay.

Frequently asked questions

Is SwiftCopy a subscription?
