Find your Mac clipboard history

Keep copied text, images and links. Open the floating window and search by keyword when you need something again, without retracing chats or web pages.

Remember the source? Start there.

PasteQ identifies source apps on Mac. Filter and search by source on both Mac and iOS to narrow down the records you need.

Keep your hands on the keyboard

Open the Mac window, search, filter, copy and paste with shortcuts. The hint bar shows which actions are available as you work.

Pin it. Group it. Use it again.

Save replies, code snippets and links in Pin or custom groups. Pick from content you have already organized the next time you need it.

Sync your devices with iCloud

Sync across Mac, iPhone and iPad using the same Apple Account with iCloud enabled. Open PasteQ on your phone to find and organize synced records.

A keyboard for your saved text

Set up the shortcut, copy text or a link, and capture it with Back Tap. Keep automatic pinning enabled to reuse it from Pinned. No Allow Full Access required.

Take a saved reply from Mac to iPhone ​

  1. Organize on Mac. Copy a reply you use often and add it to Pin or a custom group in PasteQ.
  2. Check it on iPhone. Enable iCloud sync on both devices, then open PasteQ on your phone and confirm the text has arrived.
  3. Reuse it while typing. Add and switch to the PasteQ keyboard, tap the saved text, and review it before sending.

Copy text. Back Tap. Reuse on iPhone. ​

Remember the app? Filter your clipboard by source. ​

Looking for a link copied in your browser, or text saved from a work app? PasteQ identifies source apps on Mac. Choose a source, then search by keyword to narrow down your clipboard history. Records synced to iPhone through iCloud can also be filtered by source.

How is PasteQ different from Universal Clipboard? ​

Apple's Universal Clipboard helps you transfer something you just copied to another device. PasteQ focuses on searching history, filtering by source and organizing reusable content so you can find saved items later. Learn about multi-device sync.

Does iPhone record everything I copy in the background? ​

No. On iPhone, each text item or link is captured when you run the shortcut or trigger Back Tap. Copying alone does not start continuous background recording. Keep automatic pinning enabled (the default) to reuse captured items from Pinned in the PasteQ keyboard. See setup and requirements.

Is my data local or in iCloud? ​

PasteQ stores data on your device. When you enable iCloud sync, data also syncs through your personal iCloud account. Sync needs a network connection and the relevant system settings. See the privacy policy for the terms.

Most features are free. Some advanced features are paid.
