Clipy offers three essential features for a clipboard manager that I'm using everyday: keep history records of clipboard, quick choose and paste from a pop-up menu, and convert clipboard content into plain text with single modifier key. Of course there are lots of clipboard manager applications available on MAS that can do this and even more, but Clipy better fits my needs. First, it's *NOT* an MAS application, which mean that it needs not to obey Apple's sandboxing policy. It can interact to system events without the requirement of a separate "helper" utility, thus mitigate the operation overhead. Second, the resource requirement of this application is extremely low. After one day heavy usage and it only allocated 7MB of memory. Meanwhile, the trusty Pastebot would occupy 50MB+ of memory. Third, it can operate in invisible mode, hiding both Dock and Menu bar icon. And last, but not least, it's free.

This is the best clipboard manager I have used since the days of System 9.x I works fast, with all the important features but without superfluous bells and whistles. I do recommend it as a must for any user that has to copy and paste many things over and over or for those that want to keep a history of the clipboard. This latest update is strange, because there are two GitHub pages, one with the official 1.2.1 version and the other with an unsigned and not notarized 1.2.8 version. I think the developer should clarify this because it could be seen as a hijacking of the project and a security risk.

Still cannot delete just 1 or more clips at a time. I don't want to delete the entire history just a couple of no longer useful clips. Seems like this should be a simple fix. ClipMenu had this feature.

I love this app and prefer it over many other, more complex and "powerful" clipboard managers. for simple tasks, such as storing large numbers of clips and having a "permanent" clip collection this is perfect. Note to the site admin: this is version 1.2.6, NOT 1.2.8 (in the get info window)

Thank you for acknowledging ClipMenu for the base of this lovely app, Open Source WORKS! I will be upgrading from ClipMenu and have a many Snippets, if I install Clipy will it be able to read and use them or should I back them up and add them one-by-one?

Yes. Export your 'snippets' from ClipMenu snippet edit. Import into Clipy via Clip snippet edit.

I can't see the Icons of the clips. Icon in in menu entries is on. Therefore I still use the old ClipMenu. Else... simply the best.

Really need the ability to delete individual clips and not just the entire history to be really useful.

If it works the same as their older ClipMenu.app, right-click on the clip you want to delete and a drip down box with "Remove" option button will appear and just click the Remove button. Repeat if necessary for other clippings.
I wish there was a command+ option to select multiple selections.
I'd be lost without this utility and using ClipMenu in Mavericks 10.9.5.

That is the problem, it does NOT work like older ClipMenu.app, hence my comment. You cannot delete individual clips.

OK, it sounds like Apple removing features from their OS and apps!!! ;-(

Have you tried contacting the developer?

No wonder I don’t bother keeping everything up to date. Too many features seem to just disappear or just don’t work as they did before.

Does the older "ClipMenu.app" not work with later OS X versions after Mavericks. At least the remove single clips works with it.
