Nimclip

A free and open-source, native, local-first clipboard history manager for macOS.

Nimclip is a free, open-source, native macOS clipboard history tool developed using Swift, SwiftUI, and SwiftData, and permanently located in the menu bar. Use keyboard shortcuts to find, organize, and paste previously copied content.

Features:

  • History for text, links, code, images, and rich text, including source app names and icons
  • Automatic classification of links and common code, with filters for all content, text, links, code, and images
  • Search across text, recognized image text, source app names, and tags
  • Favorites plus create, rename, delete, color-code, and filter by tags
  • Preservation of rich-text formatting and images, with optional plain-text copy and paste
  • Ordered multi-item text collection for a single copy or paste
  • Image thumbnails, full image previews, and scrollable long-text previews
  • Repeated copies refresh the existing item and move it to the top instead of creating duplicates
  • Customizable global shortcut, history limit, retention period, and launch at login; the oldest non-favorites are deleted automatically at the limit, while favorites do not count toward it
  • Pause and resume clipboard recording
  • Independent light and dark appearances
  • Instant in-app switching between Simplified Chinese and English
  • Automatic GitHub Releases update checks after launch and while the app is running
