Frequently Asked Questions
How do I open my clipboard history?
Press Cmd+Shift+V (default shortcut) or click the SaneClip icon in your menu bar. You can customize this shortcut in Settings > Shortcuts.
How do I grant Accessibility permissions?
SaneClip needs Accessibility access to paste content into other apps. Go to System Settings > Privacy & Security > Accessibility and enable SaneClip. The app will guide you through this on first launch.
Where is my clipboard data stored?
All data is stored locally at ~/Library/Application Support/SaneClip/ (direct download) or ~/Library/Containers/com.saneclip.app/Data/ (Mac App Store version). Nothing is sent to the cloud or any remote server.
Does SaneClip capture passwords?
SaneClip has built-in password manager detection. When enabled (Settings > Security > "Detect & skip passwords"), it recognizes the quick copy-then-clear pattern used by password managers and automatically removes those entries from history.
Can I exclude specific apps from clipboard capture?
Yes. Go to Settings > Security > Excluded Apps and add any app you want to exclude. Copies from excluded apps will not appear in your history.
How do I export or back up my data?
Go to Settings > General > Data to export or import your clipboard history as JSON. You can also export and import your settings from Settings > General > Backup & Restore.
How do I reset SaneClip completely?
Quit SaneClip, then delete the folder at ~/Library/Application Support/SaneClip/. This removes all history and settings. Relaunch the app to start fresh.
