Clipchop

Simplify, organize, and control your macOS clipboard.

Important

Clipchop requires macOS 14.0 Sonoma¹ or above to run.

Getting Started with Clipchop

Clipchop exists in two forms - Collapsed and Expanded.

• In Collapsed mode, the default state, only recent clipboard entries are displayed to keep the interface clean and streamlined.

• In Expanded mode, you can browse all saved clipboard content, organized by category, with support for keyword searches.

The transition between Collapsed and Expanded can be toggled using [ and ].

Quick Operation Guide

Clipchop enables quick actions through keyboard shortcuts:

• Summon Clipchop: By default, use ⌥ (Option) + w to summon the clipboard history panel.
• Expand/Collapse: Use ] to expand the panel, and use [ to collapse it.
• Copy/Paste: Use ⌘ (Command) + number keys to select and paste a specific entry from the clipboard.
• Pin Clipboard History: ⌥ (Option) + number keys quickly locks down important information to prevent accidental deletion.
• Delete Clipboard History: To remove an entry, simply press ⌃ (Control) + number keys.

Clipchop also supports double-click copying and drag-and-drop pasting².

Special Features

• Text Search in Images: Even if you've copied an image, it can recognize and search for text within it.
• Custom Categories: Organize clipboard content based on personal preference to enhance search efficiency.

Installation and Running

Note

As open-source and free software, Clipchop is not available on the App Store. This means you need to manually download the application package from the Releases page. Additionally, because it's not from an official store, you might have to allow Clipchop to run as an unidentified developer³ upon first launch.

Download the Alpha Version

You can download the latest alpha release of Clipchop directly from the Releases page.
