I tried various clipboard managers and apps for macOS, such as Raycast and Alfred, which include built-in clipboard history functionality. While they are excellent and widely used, I couldn’t find one that truly met my needs. This was mainly due to their UX design or the absence of certain features, such as full content preview, the ability to resize the window to display more history items, text search within images, opening clipboard history at the text caret location, or pasting multiple items into an active app at once, among others. Being a software engineer with over 15 years of experience in commercial software development, I decided to create the perfect clipboard history app tailored to my needs. After months of development, I decided to make it available for everyone. All data is securely stored on your computer—no analytics, no requests to external web servers. It works completely offline, is open-source, and can save you countless hours if you frequently copy and paste. Feel free to try it if you like it. If you have any questions or would like to suggest a feature, just let me know.

@vladimir_ikryanov I tried to create one unknown of your effort, mine was more like an menu app: https://github.com/workhunters/c...

@vladimir_ikryanov I can definitely see the Raycast inspiration... it would be nice if Raycast allowed extending their clipboard manager so I wouldn't need to run another app to achieve similar functionality. Speaking of, a couple of the missing features don't seem missing in Raycast, unless I misunderstand? From your list: ✅ full content preview: hit ⌘-Y 🚫 the ability to resize the window to display more history items ✅ text search within images ❓opening clipboard history at the text caret location 🚫 pasting multiple items into an active app at once Can't you open the clipboard history at the text caret location by using a hotkey? You can also "Append to Clipboard" to merge multiple text items in Raycast's clipboard history, but I agree that it's missing the ability to mix media types.

@chrismessina I double checked ⌘-Y, it does nothing in the Raycast clipboard history. Maybe it's a custom hotkey?

I've been using Pasta for a really long time but this seems like a great hybrid between Pasta and Raycast Pro's clipboard manager. Awesome job @vladimir_ikryanov - going to give it a try :)

What’s the diff between open source vs paid one?
Vladimir Ikryanov
@naveenkumar if you build your own ClipBook app from open source it will not be signed and notarized (because it requires Apple Developer ID certificate, you will need to buy and use your own certificate) and the the "Check for updates" feature won't work (because the update server includes only the official builds). The rest of functionality is identical.

A unique clipboard tool that prioritizes privacy and security is quite rare. Do you have plans to add an optional iCloud sync feature? I think convenience might be a higher priority for some users.
Vladimir Ikryanov
@zhiqi_shi there's no such plans for the iCloud sync feature, because the clipboard history is a very sensitive data that must stay on your Mac and never leaves it. Everything that goes to iCloud can be hacked and stolen.

Congrats on the launch @vladimir_ikryanov. Text search within image - I dont think Alfred or any similar provides this. Do they? Would love to give it a try.

Wow, this sounds like the clipboard manager I’ve been searching for! I’ve also tried Alfred and Raycast but always felt like something was missing, especially when it came to better previews and handling multiple clipboard entries at once. The fact that it’s offline, open-source, and prioritizes privacy is a huge bonus. Definitely giving this a shot—thanks for building something so thoughtfully designed!
Vladimir Ikryanov
@williamrobertscott Thank you for the kind words! If you have any questions regarding using ClipBook or there's a feature you want me to add, just let me know. I will be happy to assist.
