Copy it now, use it later.

Whatever device is in your hand, it is on all of them.

One clipboard across all your devices

Copying something on your phone and needing it on your computer is one of those small daily frictions that quietly adds up. Texting yourself a link, emailing a photo to yourself, retyping an address by hand. Clipboard AI removes the step entirely.

Turn on iCloud sync and your history flows both ways. What you copy on iPhone is on your Mac, and what you copy on your Mac is on your iPhone and iPad. It even holds onto copies long after Apple's Universal Clipboard would have forgotten them.

Is Clipboard AI free to use?

Yes. Clipboard AI is free to download and use on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Cross-device iCloud sync is part of Clipboard AI Pro.
