ReCopy 0.14.0
New
- Copy Count in Settings › Pasting, under Paste Count: how many times you copied today, this month and in all,
with your daily average. Copies made in other apps and in ReCopy both count.
Fixed
- Paste Count now counts every paste. Pressing ⌘V yourself counts too: right after copying something, or after
copying an entry from the clipboard window. Before, only the pastes ReCopy sent were counted. Needs Accessibility,
like pasting from ReCopy. - The paste sound now plays for every ⌘V, not only for pastes sent by ReCopy.

ReCopy 0.13.0
New
- Paste Special for videos. Make a copied video smaller before you paste it: pick its size (original, 4K,
1080p, 720p, 540p or 480p) and codec (HEVC or H.264), save it as MP4, MOV or M4V, and remove its sound if you
like. Sizes that would make the video bigger aren't offered. - Paste Special for audio files. Convert a copied audio file to AAC (64, 128, 192 or 256 kbps) or WAV.
- Every option shows how big the file will be and how much smaller than the original, before you pick it.
Options that wouldn't save space are marked. - Video files in your history show a frame from the video, and audio files a waveform.
Fixed
- If a converted image or file can't be put on the clipboard, ReCopy says so instead of pasting nothing.

ReCopy 0.12.0
New
- Paste Count in Settings › Pasting: how many times you pasted from ReCopy today, this month and in all, with
your daily average since the first paste. It's counted on each Mac separately and kept out of your vault.

ReCopy 0.11.2
Changed
- ReCopy is now signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple, so macOS opens it without the "can't be
verified" warning. The signature changed again: grant Accessibility once more after updating (for pasting into
other apps).

ReCopy 0.11.1
New
- ReCopy is coming to the Mac App Store as ReCopy — Clipboard Manager. The download from GitHub and Homebrew
stays the same, with the same features.
Changed
- Your vault keeps its settings in a
.recopyfolder (it was.copaste). An existing vault's settings are copied
over the first time it opens, and the old folder stays, so a Mac still on an older version keeps working. - Feedback and bug reports now go to help.me@lazycatlabs.com.
- ReCopy is now signed with the Lazycat Labs team certificate, so macOS sees a new signature: grant Accessibility
again after updating (for pasting into other apps).
Fixed
- If ReCopy can't open your history folder, for example on a drive that isn't connected, it asks for the folder
again instead of showing an empty history.
Install

Note
ReCopy isn't notarized yet, so macOS blocks the first launch. Open it once, then go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway.
ReCopy 0.10.0
New
- Crop and rotate images in the annotation editor. Pick Crop and drag over the part to keep, or click
Rotate Right to turn the image a quarter. Your marks so far are kept in the image, and Undo brings back the
earlier version. - Sponsor ReCopy from Settings › About: GitHub Sponsors, Buy Me a Coffee, Ko-fi, PayPal and Saweria (for
supporters in Indonesia). Settings search finds them by name.
Changed
- Under the hood: the project is updated for Xcode 27.2. Nothing looks or works differently.

ReCopy 0.9.2
Changed
- Copaste is now ReCopy. Same app, new name. Your vault opens as before, and your shortcuts, text size and window
position are copied over on first launch. - Homebrew: the cask is now
recopy(brew install --cask lazycatlabs/tap/recopy).brew upgrademoves you over
fromcopaste. - macOS sees ReCopy as a new app, so grant Accessibility again (for pasting into other apps). You can remove the old
Copaste app afterwards.
Install

differently.

Copaste 0.9.0
New
- Paste Special for text: the same shortcuts as for images (⌥↩ on the selected entry, ⌃⌘V for the latest copy)
open text options when the entry is text.- Reformat: As Is, Tidy (shared indentation, trailing spaces and extra blank lines removed), and for JSON:
Indented or One Line. - Paste As: Plain Text, Code Block (Markdown fence), or Monospaced (for Notes, Mail, Pages and web editors).
- Code Block Language: search about forty languages by name, tag or alias, or type a tag of your own. On text
that's already a code block, the new language replaces the old tag. - The result is saved to the history as its own entry.
- Reformat: As Is, Tidy (shared indentation, trailing spaces and extra blank lines removed), and for JSON:
- Code detection: JSON, HTML, XML and 15 languages (Swift, Dart, Kotlin, Java, Python, JavaScript, Go, Rust,
C/C++, SQL, CSS, Shell…). A Markdown code block is named by its own tag. - Code filter and badges: the type filter has Code, and code entries show their language.
Changed
- Selecting several entries of different kinds, or several texts, shows a message instead of Paste Special. Several
images still convert together.
Fixed
- A copy made just before opening Copaste or Paste Special is now always the latest entry.
