⌘3part of dipswitch, a mac app
PASTE
you copied over it. it is not gone.
the mac’s clipboard holds one thing. copy again and the last one is lost. PASTE is the clipboard tool in the dipswitch app. it keeps each copy as you make it, so the one from ten minutes ago is still here. so is the one from tuesday.
apple silicon · macOS 13 or later
STACK
four things to move. the clipboard holds one.
so you go back and forth: copy, switch, paste, switch back. with STACK you copy the four in a row and paste them back in order. you go to the form once.
- free
- the history, the search, pasting from the panel, the private check. seven days kept
- PRO
- STACK. what else PRO adds
- this demo
- keeps a clipboard of its own. yours is not read or changed
what it does not keep
a history of everything you copy is a risk. so some copies are not kept.
every copy is checked on this mac before anything is stored. what looks like a password, a key, a card number or a one-time code still pastes as usual, and is not saved. copy something else and it is gone.

- API keys and tokens, private keys, passwords, card numbers, IBANs, recovery phrases, one-time codes
- if you ask
- names, addresses and phone numbers too
- wrong call
- ⌘K saves it anyway
- it is a check
- it works from patterns. it can miss a secret, and it can flag something harmless
when it stops
password managers are not read.
a copy made in a password manager is skipped before its contents are looked at. recording also pauses by itself while the screen is shared or recorded, and while you type in a password field.
try it
- never read
- Passwords, Keychain Access, 1Password, Bitwarden, Dashlane, KeePassXC, Strongbox, Proton Pass, Enpass. add any app
- also skipped
- copies an app marks concealed or transient
- by hand
- ⌃⌘P pauses. or skip only the next copy
said plainly
free keeps seven days. nothing waits behind a lock.
recording, search, pasting and every privacy control are free. copies older than seven days are deleted, not held back. PRO is bought once, for this module. it is not on sale yet.
- free
- history, search, the panel at the text cursor, ⏎ and ⌥⏎, every privacy rule, pause, erase. 7 days kept
- PRO adds
- history past 7 days, kept by your rules. pins and boards. snippets with blanks to fill in. STACK. paste as clean text or markdown, per app. search of the text inside images
- stored
- on this mac, encrypted with AES-256. the key stays in your keychain. no account, nothing to sync
- erase
- the last 5 minutes, the last hour, today, or everything
what it will not promise
- the check
- works from patterns, and from a small on-device model if you turn it on. it can miss a secret. erase the last 5 minutes covers that
- permission
- macOS 15.4 and later asks once to let PASTE see what you copy. pasting for you, and opening at the text cursor, is a second, optional permission. without it ⏎ copies, and you press ⌘V
- downloads
- the on-device model, about 51 MB, once. it needs apple silicon. the built-in rules do not
- seven days
- on free, older copies are deleted, not hidden. buying PRO later cannot bring them back
- files
- PASTE keeps where a file is, not a copy of it
- text in images
- PRO. read while the mac is idle and plugged in, so not the moment you copy
download free.
