## What it is
Flycut is a clean, simple clipboard manager for developers based on the open source Jumpcut app. It stores every copied snippet in a history on macOS and iOS, letting users paste earlier items via a configurable hotkey like Shift-Command-V.

## Use cases
- manage clipboard history on mac
- paste previously copied code snippets
- recover an older clipboard item after copying something new
- sync clippings between mac and ios
- customize clipboard paste hotkey
- open web links from clipboard history on ios

## When to choose
- you're on macOS or iOS and want a lightweight, free clipboard history tool
- you frequently copy and paste code and need to reuse earlier snippets
- you prefer a minimal, open source alternative to Jumpcut

## When to avoid
- you need cross-platform support beyond Apple devices
- you need rich clipboard features like snippets, search, or cloud sync across teams
- you're on Linux or Windows
