Does far more than most in a clean interface - I use it DAILY and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a solid clipboard manager - it is an ESSENTIAL app for professionals and regular users alike...

Unclutter is brilliant, I have no idea why it took me this long to try it. Notes saves opening my favourite text editor again and again, it’s lightweight and it’s just there, ready to go. I’m using Alfred’s clipboard alongside Unclutter’s clipboard with no problems so far. Unclutter makes it easy to edit clippings. Files has replaced Yoink.
I find it interesting that the developer feels the need to tell everyone how to best use his app. I understand that he would have his preference, but not everyone uses a computer in the same way. If the default way is not convenient for some people, it's not the best way. Kudos that there are other ways to use this.
I've been using it for 6-months and I'm accustomed to having my drawer available for notes. I like keeping useful tidbits there that I know I'll need later. When I discovered I could make multiple notes I started putting useful program shortcuts in different notes there so I can easily reference my list of shortcuts and start to learn them for a variety of different programs. My only complaint is that it the drawer will occasionally drop down when I don't intend it to. There is likely a small change I could make to my preferences to avoid this, but it is now that much of an issue so I haven't investigated it.
Please add way to organize notes into folders, or categories, instead of piling all the notes into one box. I have hundreds of notes, a categorizing system would be fantastic.
Best of class. Was searching/testing apps forever that I didn't have to click to access (wow, lazy, no?). Perfect. Only little thing - it would be nice when a clip is open, if you could delete it from there. If you select the trash button, you get a "clear the clipboard and history" option or "cancel." Do love easy deleting from list view, but again, lazy me wants to delete within that clip. Doesn't totally make sense to have that option within the clipped note anyway ;-) GREAT APP!!
Question: Is it possible to disable the Clipboard feature entirely? This is not a desirable feature a all!
This feature is very dangerous because it saves everything you copy, INCLUDING Passwords, right?
I am using 1Password to manage my hundreds of passwords. One way for 1Password to work is by temporarily copying the password, and there is a safety feature to remove the password from the clipboard after a set time (like 3minutes)...
but with Unclutter, your passwords will be saved in an unsafe structure in parallel with 1Password. This is dangerous!
I like the Files and Notes feature, but the clipboard saving is a deal breaker!
Very useful. I put the Unclutter folder in Dropbox. Easiest way I found to transfer my files to Dropbox. Like Gryphonent said below, the only thing missing is the ability to paste elements from Unclutter clipboard.
Small and very handy software. Makes life easier when I have to move files from one folder to another, and when I copy a few pieces of text from different sources.

Great all-in-one tool for the clipboard, files, and notes. I’d wish to have shortcut keys for selecting clipboard items though. It is a bit cumbersome to click on entries and then paste back the selection to wherever you want it to go.
This is an awesome little utility. It is attractive, unobtrusive and has a very small footprint memory-wise. Just a quick single-finger down gesture with my Magic Mouse at the top of the screen and I am presented with the clipboard, commonly-used files that used to clutter my desktop and perhaps most importantly of all, a notepad. It is well worth the purchase price.
I was using Unclutter for 2 weeks and the app is easy to use and quite useful - but I had to remove it because it slowed down the system boot time to a crawl. My OSX 10.9.1 booted from SSD in under 20 seconds before installing Unclutter - with Unclutter the full boot takes almost 2 minutes!!! Removed Unclutter and I'm back to < 20 sec boot time.
Unclutter + Hazel = clean desktop + easy access to files removed from the desktop. I set Hazel to move any files over 2 days old from my desktop to the Unclutter folder (which i placed in my home folder) now files that used to be on my desktop are much easier to access, and my desktop remains pristine.
As far as I can tell, anything in the files box is actually moved to an application support directory for unclutter. I have a lot of network and usb mounted drives on my desktop and I wanted to put them in unclutter and it started to move the whole contents of the drive locally.. doh.
Otherwise, its OK. .0 to .1 cpu and 67.5MB RAM footprint.
Nice app, very handy !
Would be even nicer if you could copy/past the content of the clipboard and use it as a clipboard manager as well.
Gonna use this a lot, one of those little apps that makes productivity just a little more productive...
