- Mac and Windows users who move content between apps
- Worth noticing
- The page says ordinary use needs no account; Mac requires macOS 14+ and Apple Silicon, while Windows 11 has x64 and ARM64 builds.
Field notes
The page walks through collecting content, pinning or noting it, then retrieving it by double-click, drag-out, or shortcut. Search covers clipboard history, filenames, and text recognized in images; users can also filter by source app and group. Cross-device options are separate choices: WebDAV sync, local-network sharing that requires confirmation on a new device, or an encrypted backup for restoring on Mac or Windows.
