About PasteNow

PasteNow is a clipboard tool for macOS and iOS. It collects the items you copy and lets you organize them into lists and Smart Lists based on conditions, then drag and drop them out when needed. Exclusion rules by app or other criteria limit what it records.

Clippings sync between devices through iCloud. The app can be driven entirely from the keyboard with custom shortcuts, and you can press Space to preview an item or right click to edit it. It was launched in 2021 and requires macOS 14 or iOS 17.
