UniClipboard is an open-source clipboard sync tool that lets you securely share text, images, and files between your devices. It uses end-to-end encryption, works across Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile companions, and doesn't require a cloud account.

A nice alternative to Apple's Universal Clipboard or Microsoft's clipboard sync for anyone who wants more control over their data.

I got all excited, installed on phone, installed on laptop, won't be even pair - the pairing process is completely broken.

Phone expects to use a QR code from pc, pc app only presents a numerical code.

No way to enter that code on phone.

Really disappointing.

Looks really promising still.

Edit: Desktop app pops up a sync window on first run. That is for syncing to other desktop apps, not mobile device. Mobile device sync is in settings.

So it's a first-run default. That should maybe be changed.

Works excellently now - sync is instant.
