Clipy: The Best Free Clipboard App

When you copy and paste text, you can usually only paste the text you copied just before.
So when you want to paste text you copied a few times before, you have to find and copy that again. Have you ever had this bothering experience?
However, if you use this software “Clipy“, you can save multiple histories of your copies and choose from them to paste.

There are many other useful features in “Clipy“, but in this article, I’ll show you the basics of how to use it.
