FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it free?
Yes. The 14-day free trial includes all features. After the trial, basic features remain available, but accessing history older than 24 hours requires the Pro upgrade ($5.99 one-time).
Where is my data stored?
Only on your Mac's local storage. Nothing is ever sent to any server. Kopipe works without an internet connection.
Will it save copies from my password manager?
You can exclude specific apps. Kopipe also automatically detects and skips credit card numbers and OTP codes, so sensitive data is filtered out by default.
Does it work on iPhone or iPad?
No. Kopipe is macOS only.
Can I paste with just the Enter key?
Grant Kopipe permission under System Settings > Privacy & Security > Accessibility, and a single Enter key pastes directly into the active app. Without this permission, clips are only copied to the clipboard, so you'll need to press ⌘V yourself.
Is it a subscription?
No. It is a one-time purchase of $5.99. No monthly or annual fees. All future updates are included.
