A keyboard for people who copy way too much.

What ClippyKeys is

ClippyKeys is a custom keyboard for iPhone. It does two jobs the built-in keyboard doesn't: it keeps a history of the text you copy, so you can paste any of it later, and it expands snippets, so typing a short shortcut like “omw” turns into the full sentence you'd otherwise retype every day.

It's also a complete keyboard in its own right: QWERTY with an optional number row, symbols, a numpad, emoji, space-bar cursor control, auto-capitalisation, light and dark mode, and a layout sized to feel like the iOS keyboard you already know.

Who makes it

ClippyKeys is designed and built by Rishikesh Bidkar, an independent developer. There's no company behind it collecting data, no investors to answer to, and no growth team. Just one person who got tired of copying the same address, email and tracking number over and over, and built the keyboard they wanted.

What we believe

• Your clipboard is private. Everything ClippyKeys stores stays on your iPhone. There are no servers, no accounts, no analytics and no network requests.
• Tools should feel native. The keyboard follows iOS conventions so there's nothing new to learn.
• Small and focused beats bloated. ClippyKeys does clipboard history and snippets really well, rather than everything badly.

Where to get it

ClippyKeys is for iPhone running iOS 16 or later. It's coming soon to the App Store; this page will link to it as soon as it's live. You can try the clipboard and snippets for yourself in the interactive demo on the home page.
