Copy and paste,
the way it should be.

Copy here.
Paste there.

⌘CCtrl+C here, ⌘VCtrl+V there. No shared account needed.

• Text, images, files, folders

  Pastes cleanly into plain-text fields.

• Up to 50 MB is sent as you copy

  Larger items on demand. The limit is adjustable.

• Pause any time

  Pause everything, or just one computer.

Any size.
Just drag it over.

Computers near and far are on the radar. Drag files onto one to send them. No cloud drive, and your history stays clean.

• Any size

  Multi-GB videos or folders with thousands of files.

• Picks up where it stopped

  Resumes after a dropped connection or sleep. Every file is verified.

• Received files in one place

  Saved to Downloads by default, one click to show.

Works across networks; relaying through Service is limited to 100 MB a day. Both computers need 2.5 or later.

New in 2.6

A friend’s computer,
just as easy.

Add them as a contact, no pairing needed. Files arrive once they accept, with an optional note.

• They decide what comes in

  See who sent what before accepting, or auto-accept people you trust.

• You decide who can send

  No one, contacts only, or everyone on your network for 10 minutes.

• Files, not chat

  Contacts never see your clipboard, history or devices.

On different networks, both turn on Service. Both need 2.6 or later.

New in 2.8

Your phone joins in.

Use the Android app to send and receive batches of photos and files with a computer, then save or share them. Prefer no installation? Scan a code for clipboard history, sending content and separate file transfers in the browser.

• Use the browser

  for history and separate file transfers.

• Android sends and receives

  batches, with save and share.

• Same network

  ; keep the web page open.

There is no iPhone or iPad app: iOS does not let apps read the clipboard in the background, and distributing one needs a certificate. Those devices use the web page.

New in 2.10

Make it yours.
Even in pixels.

Pick a theme in Settings › Appearance: Default and Pixel are built in. Duplicate one and make it yours, or ask an AI to design one. Light, dark or match the system.

• Pixel theme

  Bitmap type, notched blocks and bevelled buttons. A night or daytime scene up top, a paper plane while sending and a burst of stars when it’s done.

• Custom themes

  Duplicate a built-in theme, import or export theme files. You’re warned when text would be hard to read.

• Ask an AI

  Add pasteferry-cli mcp to Claude, Cursor and others, then say “make me a cyberpunk theme”. It’s created and applied.

Themes apply only to the device you set them on (on a computer, the main window and quick paste); they aren’t synced. The Android app has its own Settings › Appearance. Pixel themes can add CRT scanlines. The AI can only read and write themes, never your history or devices.

Keep what you reuse.

Star the things you reuse. They’re kept as a separate copy and never expire.

• Never cleaned up

  History expires; favorites stay.

• A copy of its own

  Changing or deleting the original doesn’t affect it.

• In quick paste too

  Also in quick paste; press ⌘DCtrl+D to add.

The details,
taken care of.

Home and office,
connected directly.

Same network: install and pair. Different networks: turn on Service.

• Same network

  No server. Enter a pairing code and you’re done.

• Across networks

  Service, your own server, or Tailscale.

• End-to-end encrypted

  Verify fingerprints when pairing; the server never sees your content.
