[Geczy]

on my windows:

~/desktop
$ ./uniclip.exe
Starting a new clipboard
Run `uniclip 192.168.0.178:53533` to join this clipboard

Connected to device at 192.168.0.229:62305

Did you try to visit 192.168.0.178:53533 in a web browser on your iPhone?

[Geczy]

yes how do i use this on my iphone ?

Unfortunately uniclip does not work on iPhones because Apple does not allow running executables directly

[quackduck]

If you have a Mac tho you can use Apple's own clipboard syncing and uniclip to link your windows computer, Mac and iPhone all at once

i know, but i need clipboard syncing on windows lol

[quackduck]

yeahhhh... unfortunately apple makes running stuff on iphone pretty annoying

Why not create a webserver or websocket of some sort and then make it accessible using URL. If someone doesn't have a macOS they can use siri to run the shortcut that will have automation to grab (GET) the copied texts from the local webserver or websocket.

And vice versa. Where the iOS device will POST the clipboard to the local server and so on.

uniclip works fine on macOS.

about iOS, I'm not sure whether sites on iOS can fetch clipboard data in the background. Do you know?

With Apple Shortcuts clipboard can be set and read from web requests. But triggerring them will have to be manual. However, with the help of siri you can execute the shortcut using voice command when ever something is copied.

This is the tool that does the similar thing

Yes, uniclip works perfectly fine with macOS + iOS, using Handoff feature enabled. However if someone don't have a macOS or if the device if turned oFF then it would be an issue for them to use this tool
