User reviews
Users praise Clippy for fast and seamless clipboard synchronization between devices, ease of use, and reliability on PCs. However, multiple reviews report problematic sign-in processes on Android, occasional one-way clipboard syncing, and concerns about copy-paste functionality breaking after installation. Some users also find the app difficult to locate during searches. Overall, while the extension excels in core syncing tasks on PCs, it struggles with mobile sign-in and functionality issues.
Pros
- Syncs clipboard content quickly and efficiently between devices.
- Easy to set up and use with a clean, simple interface.
- Free to use.
- Works well from PC to mobile devices.
- No noticeable delay in synchronization, and works even outside the browser.
Cons
- Sign-in issues reported, especially on Android devices, with users stuck in a sign-in loop.
- Clipboard sync is sometimes one-way, from PC to phone only, not both directions.
- After installation, some users report copy-paste features break, sometimes permanently, even after uninstalling the extension.
- Some users find the extension hard to find when searching in app stores.

Andrii Andrushchak, 2024-03-17Perfect! Exactly what I need after "Clipt" went out. It is even faster. Thank you very much. Please don't abandon this project

Ilya Ilya, 2023-10-02When installing a popup says that it will run even after chrome is closed. That is already suspicious. Also some copy and pasting features won't work after installing it. Even in other apps. And the worst. Even when uninstalling the extension this problem persists. So all this extension basically does is break the copy and paste feature of windows PERMANENTLY. There is no way to reverse it.
