I love this app!
Im absent-minded enough that sometimes Ive accidentally overwritten something important on the clipboard. But no longer! This is so simple to use, its effortless.
When Im writing an email or other text, its handy to be able to save a copy to Clipboard in case something interrupts sending or saving, and all my writing disappears from the app I was using when things went wrong. In the past, to insure against such accidents, I had to open a new Note, then Copy and Paste back and forth to make a backup copy of text, subject line, addresses, etc. Then after a successful send Id have to delete my backup note. But now, before Send or any other risky step, I can just Copy my text, then open Clipboard, and go back to work. If I want, I can also Copy any other items I want to save if things go wrong. Afterward, it takes hardly any time to delete Clipboard items I no longer need, and I can easily save any clips I expect to need later.
I like to use Clipboard with another favourite app, Contact Capture, which automatically extracts Contacts info (first/middle/last names, street, city, email, etc.) from text on the clipboard. With Clipboard I can edit a clip to improve formatting before I start Contact Capture, then copy parts of the original clip (still available on Clipboard even if Ive copied other items since) to correct the captured info if necessary, before I let Contact Capture export it to my Contacts.
The only thing I can imagine to improve Clipboard could be a shortcut to select which one of my last few clips to paste. But its so quick to switch back to Clipboard and select a next clip, that this app may be better without the complication of adding such a feature.
