Local Wi-Fi · no cloud · no accounts

Copy on one.
Paste on the other.

AirClipboard mirrors your clipboard between Mac and Android in real time, entirely over your own Wi-Fi. Nothing touches the internet.

macOS 10.15+ · Android 8.0+ · both devices, one Wi-Fi network
synced

Every clipboard manager asks you to trust someone else's server. AirClipboard doesn't have one.

How it works

Paired in under a minute

Three steps, no configuration files, no account creation.

01

Open both apps

AirClipboard sits quietly in your Mac menu bar and advertises itself over mDNS — Android finds it automatically.

02

Scan or confirm

Scan the QR code on Mac, or connect manually by IP. Accept the one-time pairing code and you're trusted.

03

Copy anywhere

From then on, every copy on either device shows up on the other — automatically, silently, instantly.

Privacy & security

Nothing to breach, because there's nothing to store

No servers, no logins, no telemetry. Just two devices and a handshake.

Local network only

Clipboard data never leaves your Wi-Fi. There is no cloud relay to compromise.

End-to-end encrypted

Every pairing generates a unique shared key. Content is encrypted with AES-256-GCM, always.

No accounts, no telemetry

Nothing to sign up for. Nothing phones home. Pairing is the only trust you grant.

Open source

Every line — pairing, crypto, sync — is on GitHub. Read it, fork it, audit it yourself.
