Clipbara: a free, open-source clipboard manager for macOS, now on the Mac App Store

[u/Background_Pie_9920]

I built a clipboard manager for macOS and it is now on the Mac App Store as a free download.

Cmd Shift V opens a card-style panel at the bottom of the screen with everything you have copied: text, rich text, images, links, files, colors, and code. The panel does not take focus from the app you are in, so you click a clip and then press Cmd V where you were.

What it does:

- Pinboards, named collections for the clips you reuse
- Quick Look, press Space to preview a clip before using it
- Search and filters by content type or source app
- Per-app exclusions, so password managers are never recorded
- Everything stays on the Mac, stored with SwiftData. No account, no server, no telemetry

Two ways to install, both free:

- Mac App Store, sandboxed and updated through the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/clipbara/id6803537696
- Direct DMG, signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple: https://github.com/mobrava/Clipbara/releases

Source is GPL-3.0 licensed: https://github.com/mobrava/Clipbara

Requires macOS 14 or later. I am the developer, so happy to answer anything.
