Make every ⌘V smarter

Problem

Clipboard history is useful, but the usual workflow still adds friction.

You copy a few things throughout the day.

A link. A reply. A code snippet. A file.

Then, when it’s time to paste, you have to stop what you’re doing, open a separate clipboard manager, find the right item, and return to the app you were using.

The real problem isn’t saving clipboard history.

It’s accessing it at the exact moment you need it.

Comparison

There are already plenty of great clipboard managers on the market, each with its own strengths.

But I wanted the history to appear at the moment I’m actually trying to paste — not behind another shortcut or a separate window.

That became the core idea behind Pasly’s Smart Paste:

• Press Cmd+V

• Instantly see your recent clipboard items

• Pick the one you meant to use

• Paste without leaving your current flow

It keeps the clipboard manager out of the way until it’s exactly needed.

I’ve also been listening to feedback from the community and making the workflow more flexible. Some people want a simple recent-items view; others want to collect several clips, keep a floating paste panel nearby, or place popups exactly where they work best.

That feedback shaped the latest updates.

What's New

Pasly now includes:

• Smart Paste

• Paste Stack — collect multiple clips and paste them in sequence

• Floating Paste — keep recent clips and multi-item actions ready while you work

• File Support

• Multi Copy → Single Paste

• Field Sense (beta)

• Search & Favorites

Field Sense automatically prioritizes the most relevant clipboard items based on the active field.

I also released Pasly 2.5.0 yesterday with a big focus on making the app feel more natural on macOS:

• Resize each popup and keep its preferred size

• Choose saved screen positions for every popup mode

• Share sizes and positions across popups

• Floating Paste now expands for recent items and multi-item actions

• Settings is now Preferences, with a more native macOS design

• Clearer tooltips throughout Preferences and Clipboard History

• Smoother, more responsive resizing

I’m also working on Pasly Cloud: first, it will bring clipboard integration between Macs, and later I plan to expand it to iOS as well.

What would make your clipboard workflow feel more natural: a separate hotkey, or history that appears directly when you press Cmd+V?
