    System Share

    System Share lets you send content from another app into Octoclip without first copying it through the system clipboard.

    When to use it

    Use System Share when:

    • copying is not available or loses formatting;
    • you want to save a link, image, or file into Octoclip;
    • mobile background clipboard access is limited;
    • you want a deliberate, user-triggered capture path.

    Platform notes

    Share sheets differ by platform and app. Some apps send only a URL, some send rich text, and some send a file or image. If a shared item looks incomplete, test with a simpler source app and compare the payload.

    Troubleshooting

    1. Confirm Octoclip appears in the system share sheet.
    2. Share a short text or URL first.
    3. Check whether the item appears in Clip History.
    4. If the payload is incomplete, test a different source app.
    5. If Octoclip does not appear, reinstall or check whether the platform disabled the share extension.
