📄 Description
LionPaste — The Most Powerful Clipboard Manager for macOS
LionPaste remembers everything you copy — text, images, files — and lets you instantly access your complete clipboard history using a customizable keyboard shortcut.
A sleek floating panel appears right at your cursor so you never need to leave where you're working.

- Smart detection

🗂 Unlimited Clipboard History
Every text, image, and file you copy is automatically saved. Search, filter, and reuse anything from minutes or days ago.
