## What it is
UniClipboard is a privacy-first, cross-device clipboard synchronization application built with Rust and Tauri that syncs text, images, files, and rich payloads across macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android. It uses end-to-end encryption (XChaCha20-Poly1305), local-first storage, and peer-to-peer transport with NAT hole-punching, falling back to an encrypted relay that only ever sees ciphertext.

## Use cases
- sync clipboard between my mac and windows pc
- copy on phone paste on laptop without cloud account
- share clipboard across devices over the internet securely
- end-to-end encrypted clipboard sync with no central server
- clipboard manager with history and full-text search
- sync clipboard on local network only
- pair devices and sync clipboard via invite code
- self-host a clipboard sync relay

## When to choose
- you want clipboard sync across desktop and mobile without any cloud account or third-party server
- you need end-to-end encryption so no relay or network can read your clipboard content
- you want P2P sync on the same Wi-Fi with NAT hole-punching across networks, plus an optional self-hosted relay
- you need rich payload support: text, files, images, RTF, and HTML, with encrypted local history and search
- you prefer an open-source, self-hostable alternative to cloud clipboard services

## When to avoid
- you only need clipboard history on a single device without syncing
- you require a mature, long-proven product rather than a young project still in rapid release (v0.x)
- you need iOS support outside of the TestFlight public beta
- you want a managed cloud service with accounts and web access instead of device pairing
