Universal Clipboard

About

Universal Clipboard is your personal, searchable clipboard history — always one click away. Everything you save lives right in your browser: text, links, images, emails, and screenshots, all organised and searchable in seconds.

━━━ SAVE ANYTHING ━━━

Paste or type directly into the extension to save instantly. Universal Clipboard automatically detects what you've entered:

• Links — full URLs or bare domains (youtube.com, docs.google.com)
• Emails — including work and .edu addresses
• Text — notes, quotes, code snippets, anything you want to keep
• Images — via screenshot or the combine tool

Up to 500 items stored securely on your device.

━━━ SCREENSHOT ANY PAGE ━━━

Click the camera icon and drag to capture any area of the page. Works on sites that normally block screenshots — including Snapchat, Instagram, and other social platforms. Your crop is saved as an image in your history and can be copied back to your clipboard with one click.

━━━ SEARCH EVERYTHING ━━━

Find anything instantly. Search matches:

• The text content itself
• The source URL and page title
• Your custom rename labels
• Your group names
• Text visible inside screenshots (OCR powered by Tesseract — runs 100% on your device, nothing is sent anywhere)

━━━ COMBINE IMAGES ━━━

Select two or more screenshots and merge them into a single tall image. Perfect for bypassing ChatGPT's image upload limit — combine multiple screenshots into one and attach it in a single message.

━━━ GROUPS ━━━

Organise your clipboard history into custom groups like "bio", "work", or "school". Assign any item to a group, filter by group with one click, and search by group name.

━━━ RENAME ANYTHING ━━━

Give any item a custom label. Rename a screenshot "Q2 report", a link "my portfolio", or an email "main contact" — then find it instantly by searching that name.

━━━ FLOATING ICON ━━━

Enable the draggable 📋 icon in Settings to access your clipboard from any page without opening the popup. Right-click it to hide it on specific sites.

━━━ PRIVACY FIRST ━━━

Everything is stored locally on your device using Chrome's built-in storage. No accounts. No servers. No data ever leaves your browser. The OCR that reads text in your screenshots runs entirely on-device using a bundled engine — your screenshots are never uploaded anywhere.

━━━ HOW TO GET STARTED ━━━

Click the 📋 icon in your Chrome toolbar to open Universal Clipboard.
Follow the built-in tutorial — takes about 60 seconds.
Paste a link or text into the bar at the top and tap Add to save your first item.
Enable the floating icon in Settings for quick access on every page.
