Introducing SyncPocket App
Every clipboard manager starts from the same complaint: you copy something, you copy something else, and the first thing is just gone. We got tired of that complaint enough to build our own answer to it — not a "clipboard tool," but what we've started calling a second memory.
SyncPocket App is a native macOS menu-bar app that watches your clipboard and keeps everything that passes through it: text with its formatting intact, images, files dragged out of Finder, links, and HEX colors. Press ⌘⇧V from anywhere and a panel slides up from the bottom of the screen — the same non-activating window pattern Spotlight uses, so it never steals focus from whatever you were doing.
Why "second memory" and not "clipboard manager"
A clipboard manager implies you have to manage something. We wanted the opposite: capture everything automatically, let deduplication and pinning keep it tidy on their own, and get out of your way until you actually need to recall something. The panel is built for that — start typing the moment it opens, filter by type, and either copy it back or paste it directly into whatever app you were using.
What's real today
- The macOS app — Quick Panel, search & filters, copy/paste/drag & drop, pinning & deduplication — builds from source today in under a minute.
- Everything stays local. No account, no telemetry, no server.
- An iOS companion is already running in the Simulator.
We'll be writing about the decisions behind all of it as we go — starting with why local-first wasn't optional for something that touches your clipboard.
