About Batch Clipboard for macOS
Batch Clipboard is a free, simple menu bar utility for macOS that that adds the ability to copy and paste many items together. This feature is also known as a "clipboard queue" or as "sequential paste" in other, large clipboard manager apps. This app is for people who don't want a large and complex clipboard manager that has a lot of new interface elements to learn, yet still want to the clipboard queue feature at times.
Once installing Batch Clipboard you can simply use the app's global shortcut Control-Command-C to copy multiple items and then Control-Command-V to paste them in the same order.
The app also caches a history of recent clipboard items and gives you a way to repeat a paste of an old item, but the feature never gets in your way if you don't need it. It is a fast native application, local only and never shares data with any online servers. Batch Clipboard’s aims to focus on its core multi-clipboard feature and avoid the complexity of a whole clipboard manager. How it works.
Batch Clipboard is derived from the open source clipboard manager Maccy, if you do want a great full-featured Mac clipboard manager check it out here.
The app needs permission to control your computer: to monitor the clipboard and instruct the frontmost application to copy or paste. On downloading and running the application for the first time, an Intro window will open walking you through this process, as well as some pages of online help. Feel free to install and dive right in rather than reading any further on this website!
Batch Clipboard works on macOS Mojave 10.14 or higher. It is a fast native application, is local only and never shares your clipboard history with anyone or transmits them to any online servers, is open source, and free to download on GitHub or the Mac App Store. (The App Store version has some additional features unlocked an in-app purchase, one-time US$3.99)
I humbly ask for your consideration of support, to myself by way of the in-app purchase of the App Store version, or with a tip at buymeacoffee.com. Also please consider supporting the original authors of Maccy with a donation to them at their buymeacoffee page.
