A fast, native menu-bar app that remembers your clipboard, organizes your snippets, and pastes anywhere — with a single hotkey.
Requires macOS 26 or later · Universal · Open source
Everything you need to move text and images around your Mac, and nothing you don't.
Every copy is remembered. Pop your recent clips right at the cursor or from the menu bar and paste in a keystroke.
Save the text you type all the time — replies, addresses, code — and organize it into folders you control.
Transform clips on the fly: change case, trim, encode HTML or Base64, hash, convert Japanese, and more.
Open the menu and paste straight into the frontmost app with shortcuts you assign. Your hands never leave the keyboard.
Copied an image? See a thumbnail inline, with numbered items and tooltips so you always grab the right one.
On the App Store edition, your snippets and settings sync across all your Macs through your own private iCloud.
ClipMenu 2 lives quietly in your menu bar and gets out of your way.
Keep working. ClipMenu 2 quietly keeps a history of everything you copy.
The history pops up at your cursor. Pick a clip with the arrows or its number.
ClipMenu 2 drops it into the app you're in — text, code, or an image.
ClipMenu 2 is fully localized in seven languages, right out of the box.
Same app, your choice. Pick the one that fits how you work.

.app download, no account neededThey're the same app. The Mac App Store edition is a paid subscription that adds iCloud sync and updates automatically through the App Store. The GitHub edition is free and open source, with built-in auto-update, and includes every feature except iCloud sync.
macOS requires Accessibility permission for an app to paste into another app on your behalf. ClipMenu 2 uses it only to drop your selected clip into the frontmost app. Grant it under System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility. (The App Store edition is sandboxed and doesn't use this.)
On your Mac. Your history and snippets never leave your devices — ClipMenu 2 has no analytics, ads, or tracking, and we never receive your clipboard contents. With iCloud sync on, snippets travel through your own private iCloud account. Read the Privacy Policy.
The GitHub build is free forever. The Mac App Store edition is a 30-day free trial, then $9.99 per year, which covers iCloud sync and App Store updates. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account → Subscriptions.
