Source: https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/rememory/ Category: Clipboard managers ## Overview - **Who it's for**: Windows users who want an always-on clipboard history tool, built as an open-source, free desktop utility distributed through the Microsoft Store. - **What you get**: Unlimited clipboard history covering text (including RTF), images, HTML, and files, with quick search and filtering, tagging, multi-select, per-app filters to exclude specific applications, favorite/pin-style marking of clips that survives history cleanup, drag-and-drop of stored items into other apps, and manual export/import backup of clip data. - **How it works**: Rememory runs in the background on Windows, monitoring the system clipboard and saving each copied item to a local database on the device; a pop-up window (opened via a keyboard shortcut) lets users browse, search, tag, edit, and re-paste past clips, or exclude specific source apps from being tracked. All data stays local — the app does not sync to a server or other devices. ## Profile - **License**: MIT (verified 2026-07-30) - **Pricing model**: Free (verified 2026-07-30) - **Starts at**: Free (verified 2026-07-30) - **Platforms**: Windows - **Status**: active (verified 2026-07-30) ## Ranked alternatives | # | App | Alt Score | Licence | Platforms | |---|-----|-----------|---------|-----------| | 1 | [ClipboardFusion](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/clipboardfusion.md) | 90 | Proprietary | Windows, macOS, iOS, Android | | 2 | [CopyQ](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/copyq.md) | 85 | GPL-3.0 | Windows, macOS, Linux | | 3 | [Pastebot](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/pastebot.md) | 85 | Proprietary | macOS | | 4 | [ClipClip](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/clipclip.md) | 80 | Proprietary | Windows | | 5 | [CrossPaste](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/crosspaste.md) | 80 | AGPL-3.0 | Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS | | 6 | [Ditto](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/ditto.md) | 80 | GPL-3.0 | Windows | | 7 | [Paste](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/paste.md) | 80 | Proprietary | macOS, iOS | | 8 | [Clipy](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/clipy.md) | 70 | MIT | ? | | 9 | [Maccy](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/maccy.md) | 70 | MIT | macOS | | 10 | [PasteBar](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/pastebar.md) | 60 | CC BY-NC with Limited Commercial Use Exception | macOS, Windows | | 11 | [Planck](https://altcatalog.com/alternatives/planck.md) | 60 | Proprietary | Windows, macOS, Linux | Alt Score = Verified coverage (90%) + Visibility (10%).
