## Description

**Clip Cloud** - Clipboard Sync lets you copy on one device and paste on another across Android, iOS, and desktops (PC/Mac/Linux). The lightweight Chrome extension uses AES-encrypted transfers via Google Cloud Messaging, with no clipboard data stored on our servers. 

Local clipboard history is supported; cloud history is not stored. Clips can be up to 3000 characters. Works on Chrome across desktop platforms and mobile devices for fast, private cross-device syncing.
