Clipboard History Manager Chrome extension

Clipboard History Manager keeps a searchable, taggable history of everything you copy, with unlimited local storage and keyboard shortcuts for quick access, and its code is open source. It's best for people who copy and paste frequently and want to find old clips fast. The catch: unlimited local storage means your clipboard history lives in the browser, so treat sensitive copied data carefully.

What Clipboard History Manager does

Clipboard History Manager saves everything you copy so you can search, tag, and reuse it later instead of losing it the moment you copy something new. It offers unlimited storage and keyboard shortcuts, and its code is open source, meaning it can be publicly reviewed.

Is Clipboard History Manager safe?

The extension needs access to clipboard content to save your copy history, which is core to how it works. Because it's open source, its code is available for review. Since it retains everything you copy, avoid copying highly sensitive information you don't want stored, or clear your history periodically.
