    Search and filter

    Find clips faster in clip history using search keywords and filters.

    Search capabilities (Available since 1.13.0)

    All platforms support:

    • Search by Pinyin (Chinese romanization), Romaji (Japanese romanization), alias, or single character
    • Filter clip history by clip type (e.g. text, image, code)

    How to find a clip

    1
    Open clip history and the search bar

    Open Octoclip's clip history panel and tap or click the search field.

    2
    Type a keyword

    Enter a keyword, Pinyin, Romaji, alias, or single character. The list updates as you type.

    3
    Add a type, source, or time filter (optional)

    Use the filter controls to narrow by clip type, source app, or time range.

    4
    Select the clip

    Tap or click the matching clip to copy or paste it.

    Success sign: the list narrows to matching clips. If the list is empty, verify the clip exists in history and that no active filter is excluding it. Free plan users: only the last 24 hours of history is kept—older clips will not appear.

    Still stuck

    If a fresh copy never appears, check View and use clip history and History filter rules; cross-device: First-run troubleshooting.
