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