Clipboard History IO
Clipboard History IO is an open source clipboard manager delivered as a browser extension, mobile apps, and a Pro web app. It keeps a searchable history of everything you copy, with favorites, tags, merge tools, floating window mode, context menu paste, and keyboard shortcuts.
By default all clipboard data stays on your device. The Chrome and Firefox extensions store history locally, which is why the project publishes its code on GitHub for inspection. Pro adds optional cloud sync through InstantDB so you can access selected items across devices, plus a mobile-friendly web app and priority support.
The tool targets anyone who copies and pastes all day: developers, writers, support staff, and students. Import and export supports JSON from this extension or legacy tools like Clipboard History Pro, making migration straightforward.
