Coming soon · Kept for Mac & iPad
Keptby BCC Software

A little less lost. A little more kept.

Your clipboard,
kept. Private.

Turn the things you copy into a searchable history. Save text, links and original-quality images, sync eligible items through your own iCloud, and reuse them on your Mac or iPad. Pin your favorites to keep them indefinitely.

Made for Mac & iPad · macOS 27 / iPadOS 27

01 / Keep

Copy now.
Find it later.

Find the link you copied earlier, the passage you want to quote or the image for your next project. Search your saved history or browse by type, then copy an item to use it again.

02 / Protect

Private by design.

Saved history is encrypted on your device. Optional sync uses your private iCloud. Kept has no developer-operated clipboard server.

03 / Preserve

Every original.
Full quality.

No image downscaling. A copy over the 16 MB sync limit stays full quality on the device where you captured it.

Your history, across devices.

Copy on one.
Pick it up on another.

Save a useful link on your Mac and bring it into your notes on iPad. Capture a passage on iPad and reuse it in a document on your Mac.

Turn on iCloud sync in Kept on both devices using the same Apple Account. Once an item syncs, find it in Kept on the other device, copy it and paste it into the app where you need it. Your saved history lives in your own private iCloud, with a local copy on each synced device.

Sync is optional. Sensitive and local-only items stay on their capturing device by default; copies over 16 MB stay local at full quality. Delivery can take time, especially while your iPad is in the background.

Keep what matters.

Useful today.
Still here when you need it.

Pin a frequently used reply, a reference link or an image you come back to. Pinned items stay in your history indefinitely, protected from automatic expiry and every purge.

You choose how long the rest stays. Regular items default to seven days since last use; sensitive items default to 24 hours. Adjust retention in Settings, and clear unpinned history whenever you want a fresh start.

Keeping and clearing your history →

Two devices. Thoughtful differences.

Made for the way
each device works.

On your Mac

Kept saves eligible copies while it runs. Open history, copy an item, then press Command–V in the app where you want it.

On your iPad

Return to Kept to save the current clipboard after allowing access, or use Save to Kept through Shortcuts. iPadOS does not allow continuous background clipboard monitoring.

How iPad capture works →

A bonus for your iPhone.

Copy on your iPhone.
Keep it on your Mac or iPad.

A line of text, a link or an image copied on your iPhone can show up in Kept on your nearby Mac or iPad through Apple’s Universal Clipboard.

Use the same Apple Account with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Handoff enabled. On iPad, bring Kept forward and allow clipboard access to save the current copy. Copies overwritten before capture cannot be recovered.

Your iCloud. Your choice.

A stronger layer of privacy.

With Apple’s Advanced Data Protection enabled, the CloudKit assets and encrypted fields Kept uses protect synced clipboard content with end-to-end encryption. Some service metadata remains outside that protection.
