Private, searchable clipboard history

About YankLog
YankLog keeps copied text searchable without sending clipboard content off your
device. Clipboard history is stored in a local encrypted database and can be
paused or filtered whenever needed.
Search the complete history, pin useful clips, undo accidental deletions, and
open the keyboard-focused Quick Pick window from a desktop shortcut. Retention
limits and privacy filters control what is captured and how long it is kept.
Password-encrypted backups can move selected items or the complete history
between YankLog installations.
