Features

It already knows what you copied.

Every clip is classified the moment you copy it, and previewed as what it actually is.

Text Links Code Images Colors Files

Auto-classification

Six kinds detected automatically, each with its own look. No tagging, no folders.

// copied from Xcode, highlighted instantly func classify(_ clip: String) -> ClipKind { if clip.isHexColor { return .color } return .text }

Syntax highlighting, built in

Code is highlighted right in the panel. Colors get a live swatch, images get thumbnails.

npm run build
npm run build 3×

Duplicates coalesce

Copy the same thing again and you get one entry with a count, bumped to the top.

Pin what matters

Install

Up and running in 30 seconds.

One command installs Recall straight into Applications and opens it. Prefer to click? The manual download works too.

Paste this into Terminal

Downloads Recall, moves it to Applications, and opens it. No warning to dismiss, nothing else to do.

$curl -fsSL https://github.com/sameer-soni/Recall/releases/latest/download/install.sh | bash

Open source, so read the script first if you like. Then just press ⌘⇧V.

Download manually

  1. Download the .zip and drag Recall.app into Applications.
  2. macOS blocks the first launch. Right-click the app and choose Open, twice.
  3. Press ⌘⇧V. That's it.
Download .zip

Stop losing what you copy.
