SyncClipboard is a cross-platform clipboard synchronization and history management tool that runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
The tool solves the problem of keeping clipboard contents synchronized across multiple devices and maintaining a searchable history of clipboard items. It works by syncing clipboard data through a server backend, which can be deployed as a standalone service, run inside a Docker container, or accessed through WebDAV or S3-compatible object storage. The project includes specialized handling for image clipboard content, allowing direct pasting of image files to the filesystem, downloading original images from browsers, and converting modern image formats to widely-compatible formats for pasting into text fields.
Developers should choose this tool if they work across multiple machines and want seamless clipboard sharing without manual intervention. It suits teams or individuals who need both real-time synchronization and the ability to access clipboard history. The project supports multiple deployment models: a built-in server mode for simpler setups, standalone server deployment for more complex networks, and integration with existing WebDAV or S3 infrastructure for organizations already using those systems. Mobile device support is available through third-party companion applications and automation tools rather than native mobile clients.
The project maintains active build automation with continuous integration checks. Development activity shows regular updates and issue tracking, with documented breaking changes between major versions requiring coordinated upgrades across all clients and servers in a synchronization network. The codebase is written in C# and depends on ASP.NET Core for server components.
