Keepit overview

Keepit is an open-source clipboard manager for macOS. It keeps a searchable history of copied text, images and files, so you can find and reuse earlier items without switching away from your work.

Features:
  • Open a searchable clipboard history menu at the text cursor with a keyboard shortcut.
  • Preserve rich text and HTML formatting, or paste as plain text.
  • Create reusable templates with placeholders for dates, text input and choices.
  • Collect multiple items in a paste queue and paste them back in order.
  • Preview saved items and edit text before reusing it.
  • Configure history limits, keyboard shortcuts and applications to exclude from recording.
  • Enable password protection to encrypt history and templates with AES-256-GCM. Unlock with your password or Touch ID on supported Macs.
  • Save optional encrypted backups to a folder you choose, including a folder synced by iCloud Drive or Dropbox.

No account is required. Keepit has no cloud service of its own or telemetry. Automatic update checks can be disabled. Source code is available under the MIT license.

What's new in version 3.0.7

Security and reliability improvements:
  • Strengthened backup rotation checks so only verified Keepit backup files are removed.
  • Improved identity checks for applications sending automation commands to Keepit.
  • Fixed delayed paste actions so they are cancelled if Keepit locks, the target application is no longer active or the clipboard contents change.
  • Adjusted history size limits to prevent saving data files that cannot be reopened.
  • Improved removal of saved history when history persistence is disabled, including reporting deletion failures.
  • Tightened permissions for newly created data files and folders.
  • Improved error messages for failed saves and password changes.

No data format changes. Backups remain compatible with versions 3.0.5 and 3.0.6.
