Sync clipboard history between Mac, Windows and the web

Pastyx is a clipboard history manager with Mac and Windows clients and a web app. Desktop clients capture copy history; the web app supports explicit paste, viewing, search and sharing. Sync is optional.

A reproducible sync check

  1. Install the desktop client, sign in to the same account on source and destination, and enable sync.
  2. Copy harmless test text on the source, such as “Pastyx sync test 2026-10-07”.
  3. Verify that it appears in source history, then search for the same text on the destination or web app.
  4. Confirm the content and source, then paste into a blank document. A history entry alone does not prove the destination app received a paste.

If it is missing, check the account, network, sync status and client versions. Do not copy passwords or verification codes to diagnose sync.

Does the web app automatically read copies from other apps?

No continuous background monitoring. Browser clipboard access requires permissions and user interaction. Paste explicitly into the web app, or let a desktop client capture and sync. No installation does not grant desktop-level clipboard access.

History vs cross-device sync

History retrieves earlier copies on one device. Sync makes account content available to other devices. Local use does not require cloud sync; review settings and privacy before enabling it.

Is it a subscription?

The web app is free. Mac and Windows clients have a 7-day trial, then cost US$9.99 once for up to 3 devices on one license. Final amount, taxes and licensing follow checkout.

What is the iPhone and iPad release status?

The web app works in a browser. Check the official site and App Store for the native Pastyx: Clipboard Sync companion’s release status. Browser access does not establish that the native app has shipped.

Does it guarantee no password is captured?

Clients skip clipboard items marked concealed/transient and offer ignored-app and pause settings. This depends on source-app markings and your configuration; it cannot identify every secret copied as ordinary text.

How does it compare with Paste, Maccy, Ditto or Raycast?

Choose by platform, sync, privacy and price, using the source-backed comparison pages. Another tool may suit single-device Mac or Windows history better.
