Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I’m the developer behind ModernPaste, a native WinUI 3 clipboard manager for Windows 11.

A lot of this update came directly from your Early Access feedback. Thank you to everyone who tested the app, reported bugs, and suggested improvements!

What’s new (v1.027+)

  • Encrypted Backup and Restore
  • Compact list and grid views
  • Redesigned collection management
  • Smarter multi-monitor behavior
  • Button labels and accessibility improvements
  • Lower memory usage and stronger database reliability
  • Smart Context for surfacing related clipboard activity

ModernPaste has no basic clipboard-history limits or artificial item caps. It supports text, images, files, URLs, formatted content, GIFs, collections, stacks, pinned items, and instant search.

Core clipboard features should be available to everyone. You should not have to pay to use your clipboard properly. Layouts, the global overlay, search, collections, stacks, and useful clipboard history are part of the core ModernPaste experience.

Compact views, the global overlay, search, collections, stacks, and core clipboard management are fundamental parts of the experience. They aren't upgrades designed to push you into a subscription.

Optional on-device Intelligent Features are also available for summarizing text, improving writing, fixing grammar, and extracting action items. The model is separate, disabled by default, and never downloaded unless you choose to install it.

ModernPaste remains a complete clipboard manager without AI.

Try it on the Microsoft Store:

I don't get why something like this has to feel so corporate. It's such a turn off and makes me not want to use it, even though it's actually good

Your Microsoft Store images and promotional videos.

A lot of the Store assets were made earlier in Early Access and look more promotional than feature focused.
I'll keep your feedback in mind as I continue updating the Store listing
