Auto Queue collects as you copy and pastes in order with plain ⌘V. Plus a menu that fits your screen.
- Auto Queue. Press ⌃⌘S (or choose Turn On Auto Queue from the menu bar icon) and everything you copy goes straight into the Clip Queue, in order. Then press plain ⌘V to paste each item one after another. Pasted one in the wrong place? ⌃⌘Z steps it back. When the queue is empty, or you turn Auto Queue off, ⌘V is your normal paste again, so it never takes over by surprise. The menu bar icon changes while Auto Queue is on, so you always know. Uses the same Accessibility permission as Paste to Active App; nothing new to allow.
- Pause from anywhere. ⌃⌘P pauses and resumes the clipboard from any app (change it in Settings › Hotkeys). The menus now show the shortcuts for Pause, Plain Text, and Auto Queue, so they're easy to learn.
- Choose your menu height. Settings › Interface › Menu Height offers Compact, Standard, and Tall, so the menu bar list fits your display, from a 13-inch laptop to a big monitor. It never grows past the screen.
- Fuller link previews. Link previews in the detail pane now show the whole preview image, with the title below it, instead of cropping the top and bottom.
Undo a paste that landed in the wrong field, and split spreadsheet data without losing a cell.
- Step Back in the Clip Queue. Pasted into the wrong field? Press ⌃⌘Z, or click Step Back at the top of the Clip Queue, and the last item goes back to the front of the queue, ready to paste again where it belongs. Press it again to go further back. The button shows exactly which item it will restore, so you always know what's coming back.
- Smarter splitting for spreadsheets and CSV. Split into Clippings now understands quoted values, the way spreadsheets and CSV files write them: "Smith, John" stays one piece, even if it spans lines. Empty cells are kept in place too, so when you paste the pieces in order with the Clip Queue, every value still lands in the right field.
- More Polish. Typing to search in window mode no longer drops the first letter you type, and empty clippings now show a clear "Empty" label instead of a blank row.
Split one copy into many, switch lists in a keystroke, and let rules do the filing.
- Split into Clippings. The opposite of Merge. Copy a block of text, split it into one clipping per line (or per tab, comma, or a separator of your own), check the numbered preview, and send the pieces straight to the Clip Queue. Paste Next then fills them in, in order: perfect for dropping a Slack message into a JSON structure, or spreadsheet cells into a web form. Blank lines are dropped, and every piece is trimmed.
- A new list switcher. Your Clip Lists now live in the header itself. Click the list name and the switcher opens over your clippings, with History and the Clip Queue up top and your own lists below. Jump straight to any of the first nine with ⌘1 to ⌘9, or toggle the switcher with ⌘L. Search moved into the same bar, so starting to type filters in place and nothing below shifts.
- Rules from any clipping. Right-click a clipping and choose Create Rule for ‹App› to always file copies from that app into a list or the Clip Queue, or to stop capturing it entirely. The clipping you started from is filed too, and ReCopied shows you the new rule in Settings so you know where rules live. Type rules are new as well: send every image, link, file, color, or bit of JSON exactly where you want it.
- Polish and performance. Deleting a clipping now offers Undo for a few seconds. Adding several clippings to the Clip Queue keeps the order you copied them in (it used to reverse them). Icons, headers, and empty states are larger and more consistent across the app, and every sheet shares the same layout.
Optional iCloud sync, a much smarter Title Case, and a faster, smoother app.
- iCloud Sync, entirely optional. Keep your Clip Lists, Formatters, and Rules with you across your Macs, through your own iCloud rather than any server of ours. Off until you switch it on, and your clipboard history never leaves your Mac either way.
- Smarter Title Case. Acronyms and brand names survive now: a PDF of the HTML becomes A PDF of the HTML, not "A Pdf Of The Html". Small words stay lowercase (To Be or Not to Be) and hyphenated phrases read properly (State-of-the-Art). Thanks to the user who asked for this one.
- A steadier window view. Showing and hiding the detail pane used to shuffle the whole window around: the list would stretch or get squeezed, then the window would resize to catch up. Now the list stays exactly where you put it — including a width you set by dragging the divider — and only the detail slides in and out. The window also returns to where you left it, instead of drifting further across the screen with every toggle.
- Polish and performance. Deleting a large selection is instant instead of pausing. Removing several Clip Queue items at once now removes all of them. Clippings slide in and out of the list, link previews no longer shift rows as they load, copying inside a Clip List keeps your place, and launching the app no longer plays the copy sound.
Reliable Paste to Active App, richer copies, and two new developer formatters.
- Paste to Active App window mode reliability. With the main window open it could target the wrong app; now it always pastes into whatever app you were just using.
- Rich text keeps its images and formatting. Copies from apps that embed images (TextEdit, Notes, Mail) now preserve them in the preview and on paste-back.
- Two new developer formatters (opt-in). JSON Array turns a multi-selection into a valid JSON array of strings; Quoted List makes a quoted, comma-separated line. Add them from the Formatters library.
ReCopied now supports macOS 15 Sequoia and later.
- Wider compatibility. ReCopied now runs on macOS 15 Sequoia and up (was macOS 26 only). Same app, many more Macs.
Live merge preview, smarter multi-clip formatters, and park-able Clip Lists.
- Merge, previewed. Combine several clippings and see the result before you commit. A live Original / After split shows exactly what a formatter does to the whole set, using the same picker and preview as the clipping detail pane.
- Smarter merges. Numbered lists count correctly across items; line operations (sort, single line, remove duplicates) apply to the whole set; and items a formatter can't fill (like a link with no URL) drop out instead of leaving empty output.
- Consistent formatter previews. Preview a formatter in the detail pane before you use it, and formatters that need input (like Translate) prompt for it the same way whether you start from the list or the detail pane.
- Park a Clip List. Toggle a list off to hide it from the selector and "Add to List" without deleting it, then switch it back on anytime. Rules that route into a parked list pause automatically so it can't fill up unseen.
- Fixes and polish: Resolved a crash when formatting numeric text as JSON, cleaner list-row previews (no blank-line gaps), and detail header that reflows on narrow windows.
Paste to active app, Clip Queue improvements, general UI enhancements.
- Clip Queue. Line up snippets in the order you need them, then paste them one after another with a single shortcut. Reorder by dragging. Great for filling forms and repetitive data entry.
- Paste into the active app. Optionally paste a clipping straight into the app you're working in, no switching windows (enable Accessibility in Settings; fully opt-in).
- Smarter Rules. A capture rule can now route matching copies straight into the Clip Queue, and every rule has an on/off toggle so you can park a workflow instead of deleting and recreating it.
- A bigger Formatter library. One-click transforms for case styles (snake/camel/kebab), Markdown and HTML, base64/hex/URL encoding, JSON formatting, and extracting URLs or emails, on top of the built-ins.
- Refreshed interface and naming. Cleaner, vertically centered rows with tidy type labels, better-tuned source-app icons, and consistent naming across the app: Clipboard History, Clip Queue, Clip Lists, and Formatters.
Post launch update with polish and UI improvements.
- Type to search. Just start typing in the list to filter instantly.
- Do more with files. Open, Open With, and Show in Finder for any file clipping, plus open links in your browser, right from the menu.
- Smoother menu and window transitions. Your search carries over when you switch between them, and either one is ready for the keyboard the moment it opens.
- Copy sound for every copy. Get an audible confirmation for copies in any app, not just inside ReCopied. Toggle it in Settings.
- Delete confirmations for Clip Lists, Rules, and Formatters.
- Polish and fixes across Settings, sounds, and focus.
The first public release of ReCopied.
- Clipboard history for everything. Text, rich text, links, images, files, and colors, all searchable.
- Two ways to work. A menu-bar popover and a matching resizable window, one click apart.
- Instant search. Filter as you type, including by type like color, link, or image.
- Rich link previews. Page title and thumbnail for any link.
- Clip Lists and Clip Queue. Group reusable clippings, and paste a set in sequence.
- Formatters. Reshape a copy with tokens, fill-in fields, and Merge.
- Capture rules. Route or ignore copies automatically by app or text.
- Smart clippings. Color swatches (hex/rgb/hsl with conversions), JSON pretty-print, and timestamp dates.
- QR codes and OCR. Turn a clipping into a QR to copy or save, and pull text out of images.
- Privacy first. Ignores password-manager copies; masks payment cards and API keys in previews.
- Made yours. Global hotkeys, light/dark themes, spacing, font size, Plain Text Mode, and keep-window-on-top.
On the roadmap
Directions we're exploring — priorities shift with your feedback, so no promises on dates:
- Exploring: A Resizable Menu. We're looking at letting you drag the menu-bar panel to whatever size suits you, with smoother expand and collapse.
