Overview
Once upon a time apps were not multi-tasking. You would use one app at a time. Sharing in these 'before times' was difficult. To overcome this early limitation Mac OS was the first to use a system clipboard. The system clipboard allowed copying text or graphic into a 'system clipboard' in one app, quitting that app, launching another app and pasting from that same 'system clipboard'. At that time it was a revolutionary invention and productivity enhancer.
About that time we came out with the original CopyPaste which allowed the Mac to use and remember multiple clipboards from within any app. It remembered 10 clips and was the first multi-clipboard utility for any computer. It became very popular. Overtime new features were added, additional clips, more features like actions on clips, additional clipsets were added to the clip history. Decades passed, now in 2021 another complete rewrite of CopyPaste has taken place. The ancient Mac OS clipboard is the same but anyone can upgrade it by adding CopyPaste.
Most people use copy and paste thousands of times a week and would say it's essential and incredibly useful. The regular clipboard is hugely important but just a single clipboard that disappears with each copy is no longer good enough. Take the old clipboard to the next level, try CopyPaste!

Each new copy appears at clip 0, pushing previous copies down the stack.
Clip 0
Clip 0 is the most recent copy - the same as the system clipboard. It's what gets pasted when you use Command-V. With CopyPaste, every copy is remembered, so you can see, edit, and paste from any previous clip. Clip 0 is always the newest, with older clips numbered 1, 2, 3, and so on.

Clip-It Notes
Option-tap on the CopyPaste menu icon to open Clip-It Notes - a convenient way to create and manage sticky notes from your clipboard. Perfect for keeping important information visible on your desktop. Create notes from any clip, edit them, and organize them as needed. Essential for maintaining quick access to important snippets of information.
Password Manager Safe
Maintains confidentiality of password managers. CopyPaste respects security and privacy by working seamlessly with password managers like 1Password without interfering with their security features. Your passwords remain protected while you still get the benefits of multiple clipboards for everything else.
CopyPaste App History
CopyPaste, the first multiple clipboard utility, was created by Peter Hoerster in 1993. CopyPaste for Mac was the first version. The reason he embarked on the programming was simply to generate the current Bahá'í date on his computer (Peter is a Bahá'í). Having enjoyed learning to do this, he continued programming, and the result was the incredibly popular CopyPaste for Mac OS 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14.
CopyPaste is the original multiple clip utility for the Mac. CopyPaste has been massively popular since its first release. What has made it so widely appreciated? Usefulness. CopyPaste magnifies and multiplies the usefulness of the humble clipboard and it does it invisibly in the background.
CopyPaste
The first and most popular multiple clipboard utility. Never lose a clipboard again. A time saver & life saver for all Mac users since 1996.
Regular Mac Clipboard Limitations
The regular built-in Mac clipboard has 6 major limitations:
- Holds only one clip at a time
- It's invisible
- It does not save previous copies which are gone forever
- When you restart your Mac the clipboard is empty
- You can't edit the clipboard
- There are no tools to act directly on clips
CopyPaste supplies all those missing features and many more.

Reviews
"CopyPaste is a fantastic program and I use it everyday a lot…really handy tool, and I congratulate you for it!✌️ Best to you and the team. Many many thanks!!"
"This new (CopyPaste) app is 100% AMAZING and I use its numerous features thousands of times daily – literally. It has been a time-saver, increased work-flow efficiency, and so much more."
User Raves
"CopyPaste has changed my life! To be able to keep save multiple snippets, instead of having each one die when you copy a new passage, is a game changer. I use it every day for so many different projects. CopyPaste is the only app I've ever paid for, and I'll keep paying for it because it's so useful."
"I frequently find myself copying and pasting standardized text snippets across various applications, both social and non-social, to ensure consistent alignment in the diverse platforms where I write. Simultaneously, I incorporate distinct portions of the text based on the specific occasion. Notably, I refer to captions of standard photographs and phrases, as well as iconic images.
Prior to utilizing CopyPaste, I relied solely on manual copying and pasting, which often resulted in subpar outcomes. However, the introduction of CopyPaste revolutionized my workflow, enabling me to efficiently manage and utilize my clips from the Favorites set of the application, as well as extensive text from the History section. Consequently, I have significantly increased my productivity and achieved a more organized and well-structured output.
In my opinion, CopyPaste deserves to be integrated into the macOS operating system. Furthermore, its availability on iOS would be highly beneficial, and I eagerly anticipate its eventual integration.
I extend my sincere gratitude for the creation of this invaluable tool."
"I am just writing to say how pleased I am with CopyPaste 2022! I have used CopyPaste for a lot of years, and while it has always been handy, this new version substantially upped the game! My new fave is the copy to OCR - it has saved me hours with out resorting to endless work-arounds. iCloud Storage and expanded clip sets have sealed the deal. CopyPaste was always worth the money. Now it is an absolute bargain!!"
"CopyPaste has made my life so much easier and I cannot imagine a computer without it. If you are writing a lot on the keyboard and are cutting and pasting this is the right tool for the job. Store all sorts of things like letter headers and addresses to insert at the touch of a key. Very simple to use."
"CopyPaste Pro is a true workhorse for me, and my oldest app in constant, heavy use."
"Ich muss mich eigentlich fast selbst über mich selbst wundern, dass ich diese Software noch nicht eher gefunden und im Einsatz hatte. Mittlerweile kann ich mir schon gar nicht mehr vorstellen, wie ein Mac ohne diese App „funktionieren" soll. Also ich gehe jetzt mal von meinem „Arbeits-Mac" aus, an dem ich den ganzen Tag sitze und erst da spiel die Software ihren Nutzen so richtig aus. Im Gegenzug dazu hab ich noch ein etwas älteres MacBook Pro und da fehlt mit die Software überhaupt nicht. Seltsam nicht. 😉 Aber wie in der Überschrift schon angedeutet: „CopyPaste Pro ist sowas ähnliches wie eine TimeMachine für die Zwischenablage." Ich glaube dieser Satz beschreibt kurz und bündig, was die Software leisten kann."
TRANSLATION: "I actually have to wonder about myself that I haven't found and used this software earlier. By now I can't even imagine how a Mac should "function" without this app. I'm talking about my "work Mac" where I sit all day and that's where the software really shows its value. On the other hand, I also have an older MacBook Pro and there I don't miss the software at all. Strange, isn't it. 😉 But as already indicated in the headline: 'CopyPaste Pro is something like a TimeMachine for the clipboard.' I think this sentence describes briefly and concisely what the software can do."
"There is not a day goes by that I do not make use of Copy Paste. Thanks again for a superb utility."
