Version 3.0 · the biggest update yet

What's new in Clipboard

Clipboard history, keyboard shortcuts, right-click pasting, search, backups and 12× more room for your snippets.

Already installed — your snippets carried over automatically

Everything that changed

Eight upgrades, all of them yours right now.

Clipboard history New

Never lose something to the next copy again. Clipboard can remember the last 50 things you copied, ready to paste back with one click. It is off until you switch it on.

Keyboard shortcuts

Press Alt + Shift + 1 to drop your first snippet straight into whatever field you are typing in. Up to nine of them, and you can rebind every key.

Right-click to paste

Right-click any text box and pick from Paste clip to insert a snippet without touching the keyboard. Select text anywhere and Save selection to Clipboard keeps it for later.

Paste straight into the page

Clicking a snippet can now type it directly into the field you were using, skipping the copy-then-paste dance. Choose copy or paste under Settings → Behavior.

Search your snippets

Filter by title or by what is inside a snippet as you type. Handy once your list gets long.

Backup & restore

Export every snippet to a single file, and import it back on any machine — merging with what you already have, or replacing it.

12× more storage

The old version shared one small 8KB box for everything. Every snippet now gets its own space, lifting the ceiling to roughly 100KB and up to 400 snippets — still synced across your devices.

Rebuilt interface

A proper Settings screen, a full-height editor for long snippets, a storage meter, and confirmations that look like part of the extension instead of a browser alert.

About clipboard history

Because it is the one feature that needs explaining.

Recording what you copy means the extension has to watch the pages you copy from. That is a real trade, so it is yours to make — here is exactly how it works:

  • Off by default. Nothing is recorded until you turn it on in Settings, and your browser will ask permission first.
  • Stays on your device. History is never synced anywhere and never leaves your computer. Your saved snippets sync as before; history does not.
  • Passwords are skipped. Copies from password fields, one-time codes, card numbers and security codes are ignored outright.
  • Only the last 50. Older entries drop off automatically. You can clear the list at any time, or have it wipe itself whenever you close the browser.
  • Switching it off gives the permission back. Turn history off and the extension returns to having no access to your pages at all.

Nothing you copy is ever sent to a server. There is no account, no tracking, and no data leaves your browser.

Your snippets are safe

Everything you had saved moved across to the new format on its own the moment the extension updated — same snippets, same order, nothing to do. If anything looks off, export a backup from Settings and reach out.
