Everything you need to know about Clips

Monday, February 15th 2021


When using our devices, we all have to copy some text, pictures, or files now and then. However, our operating systems do not have a clipboard with storage. That means, once we copy another thing, the previous copy is gone forever, and it could be a problem if we cannot find it again. Clips will help you out in this type of situation.

Real-World scenarios

Let's say you have to complete an essay given to you as an assignment. To complete that essay, you have 100s of tabs open, and you are copy-pasting stuff to add to your assignment. You copied a text to add, but forgot to paste it, and copied something again. Now, you've lost your previous copy, and you cannot find it from the 100s of tabs you have opened.
