Overview

Quip turns your basic clipboard into a persistent, searchable database that keeps up with your workflow. It captures every link, file, and snippet you copy across your Mac and iOS devices so you never lose what you copied, even after pressing Command + C again. Beyond history, Quip lets you extract text from videos and automate repetitive typing with custom shortcuts. The app doesn’t just store your data — it cleans and categorizes it with local on-device AI and Apple Intelligence.

  • Never lose anything you copy

  • Stay organized with smart collections

  • Eliminate repetitive typing with shortcuts

  • Extract text from images, videos, and more

Quip features

Maintain a persistent clipboard history

macOS can only hold one copied item at a time, which creates a constant bottleneck for power users. Quip captures everything you copy and syncs across devices — whether it’s code, images, or links — and stores it in a persistent, searchable database. Even if you copied it days ago, you can find and reuse it instantly.

Automate repetitive typing with shortcuts

Turn your most-used text into “Super Shortcuts.” Assign a short trigger to any item in your history to instantly expand full email templates, canned replies, or complex URLs in any app. This built-in text expander scales with your clipboard, eliminating hours of manual typing from your weekly routine.

Extract text from any visual element

Sometimes information is trapped in a video, a locked PDF, or a presentation slide where text isn’t selectable. Quip’s “Grab Text” tool (Command + ⇧ + 2) uses high-accuracy OCR to extract text from anywhere on your screen. This turns visual data into editable text instantly, making it easy to pull a promo code from a screenshot, a quote from a YouTube video, or text from a locked PDF without retyping them.

Clean your history with AI

No more messy clipboard history. Quip Intelligence automatically strips tracking junk from URLs, normalizes code formatting, and cleans up messy whitespace. It also uses Apple’s on-device Foundation Models to summarize long text and suggest the right collections — without your data ever leaving your device.

    iOS app crashes often, syncing of collection doesnt work at all and the interface feel too stuffed and crowded.

  • Nice app, but not reliable!

    I’m giving it a thumbs up for good features and design and to encourage developers to keep improving it. However, I was really annoyed yesterday when the app suddenly removed my entire clip history! I have no idea what went wrong.
