As a blogger, I have to scour the Internet for multiple reasons. I find many links and unique content during my web exploration, but I cannot open my Notes app often and paste those links and texts there. So what is the solution? Fortunately, many Mac clipboard managers are available on the App Store to copy and paste the data quickly. Let’s check it out!
1. CopyClip
In your entire day, you copy a lot of text, content, or links from different websites. Apart from web sources, you may want to copy something from internal sources like App Store, Finder, and Notes apps. In this case, you can use Exceptions, which blacklist some applications. Once you select (blacklist) some apps on your Mac, Clipboard won’t record that data.
For a free app, CopyClip is arguably one of the best Mac Clipboard Managers as you can change the number of clippings for Display and remember.
Price: Free
2. Flycut
With Flycut, you can comfortably manage the app from the menubar of your Mac computer or laptop. Remember, Display in menu and Favorites are three outstanding features of this app. These three allow you to show how many clippings you want in Display and how many you wish to keep in Favorites.
Menu item icons have four options: Flycut icon, Black Flycut icon, White Scissors, and Black Scissors. You can keep any one of your choices This helps when you are using dark mode on your Mac.
Price: Free
3. Paste
Paste has a unique interface as it can be accessed from the menubar, but when you click on the icon, a list of clippings swipe up from the bottom of your Mac screen. From the bottom list, you can copy and paste the content in your Mac apps. However, Paste is a paid app, and therefore, it restricts users from creating the clippings; when you wish to copy and paste the data, the app asks for payment.
You are supposed to right-click on the clipping to copy the text, and when a menu pops up, you can Copy the text, but as mentioned above, you need to go for in-app purchases.
Price: Free (Monthly Subscription – $0.99)
