macOS only remembers the last thing you copied. NotchMind keeps a history, on your Mac, so you can paste something you copied an hour ago.
Turn it on
Clipboard history is on by default. To check, or to change how much it keeps:
- Open Settings → Smart Mode.
- Under Clipboard, make sure Keep clipboard history is on.
- Set Keep eligible clipboard items to how many recent items to keep, from 1 to 500. It starts at 50.
Open your history
- Set a Clipboard History shortcut in Settings → Keyboard Shortcuts, for example ⌥ ⌘ V. See keyboard shortcuts.
- Press it in any app. The notch opens with everything you copied, newest first.
You can also right-click the notch and choose Clipboard History, use the same item in the menu bar icon’s menu, or choose Open in the Notch in the Clipboard section of Settings → Smart Mode.
Paste something again
Start typing to search, use the arrow keys to pick an item, and press ↩. NotchMind pastes it into the app you were using. Pasting needs the Accessibility permission; without it, ↩ copies the item instead, and you paste with ⌘ V.
All the keys are in search, pin and paste with the keyboard.
What it keeps
Text, links, images and files you copy. An image copied from a file can be pasted again; an image copied from inside an app, such as a browser, is kept as a preview only and is marked Preview only.
It never keeps what looks like a password or an API key (see Secret Guard), and it ignores password managers and any app you exclude (see exclude apps).
Where it’s stored
On your Mac only, in NotchMind’s own folder. Nothing you copy is uploaded. Turning Keep clipboard history off stops recording and deletes the recent items; see clear your clipboard history.
