Your clipboard history, beautifully organized. Extract text from images, scan codes, lift subjects, format snippets, switch themes, and tidy text with AI.
PastePaw is a multi-themed, privacy-first clipboard history manager for macOS.
**28 Stunning Themes**
- 18 themes in horizontal card layout: Default, Cyberpunk, Hacker Terminal, Liquid Glass, Wabi-sabi, Classic Mac, Linear, Glassmorphism, Pixel Art, Steampunk, Brutalism, Skeuomorphic, Frutiger Aero, Sanriocore, Y2K Chrome, Coquette, Fairycore, and Decora
- 10 themes in a slim vertical column that docks to your screen edge or follows your cursor like a context menu: Default, Cyberpunk, Hacker Terminal, Liquid Glass, Linear, Pixel Art, Classic Mac, Coquette, Decora, and the new vertical-only Editorial Neon
- Pin the vertical column so it stays put when you click outside, and drag it freely by the header
- Switch layouts and themes anytime to match your mood, your workflow, or your screen

Ratings & Reviews
This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
New
- Powerful tools for images, too — Copy or screenshot anything, press Space to preview, and PastePaw gets to work on the image:
• Extract Text (OCR) — pull the text out of any image and copy it
• Live Text — select and copy text right inside an image, just like macOS
• Scan Code — read QR codes and barcodes from an image
• Lift Subject — automatically cut out the main subject, with a brush to fine-tune the edges
- More text tools — Color preview, timestamp conversion, number-base conversion, XML formatting, and QR code generation; turn each on or off in Settings.
Improved
- Refreshed image cards — Image clips now fill the card edge to edge, with a frosted info bar and cleaner corners, so browsing screenshots and photos looks great.
- Redesigned preview panel — A more native layout: a unified source header, the tool bar, and a bottom status bar with content metrics and an editable note.
- Unified Settings — A native unified title bar and grouped layout, consistent across every Settings page.
Fixed
- Fixed large images copied from browsers occasionally not being captured.
- Fixed memory growth when switching themes.
- Driver-smoothed mice (LinearMouse, Logitech, etc.) now scroll horizontal card lists correctly.
- Corrected Live Text overlay alignment and preview sizing for images; gracefully degrades on unsupported devices.
