United StatesHow many times have you pasted some text into an email and ended up with a mess of different font sizes? Pure Paste lets you paste as plain text by default. It sits in the menu bar and clears formatting (fonts, colors, bold, links, tables, etc.) from the text you copy. However, it does not touch unrelated content like files, images, etc. It also ignores content copied from password managers. You can also choose to manually clear formatting whenever needed instead of automatically. The app is free without ads because I love making apps. Consider leaving a nice review. ■ Features - Automatically clears formatting - Hide menu bar icon - Exclude certain apps - Optionally preserve links - Remove tracking parameters from URLs (Google UTM, Twitter, etc) - Launch at login - Shortcuts support ■ FAQ ‣ Why not just use the “Paste and Match Style” menu item or “⌥⇧⌘V”? - That menu item is not available in all apps. - The keyboard shortcut is hard to remember and type. - This app can exclude certain apps, preserve links, and also remove tracking parameters from URLs. ■ Privacy The app accesses your clipboard but does not store or send it anywhere. It is not even able to connect to the internet due to self-imposed restrictions that are enforced by macOS (no network entitlement). ■ Support You can contact me through the feedback button in the app or at [email protected]
I love this little app
I am a designer that works with a lot of text in multiple formats. I spend half my life copying and pasting text from one place to another. Some more serious tools like Adobe Suite have great methodes for handling pasted text, but other places where I need to place and design text are not so helpful, and for those instances, this app is a god send.
United StatesDoes excatly what it's supposed to
Not much more to say!
United Statesjust works!
Simple, gets the job done! I love this simple app because I copy anb paste A LOT! It doens't mess up the font! I love it.
United StatesOnly one little step from being perfect
Thank you for this app. I have been using another app for years to clear formating when pasting texts between apps but that app hasn't been updated for many, many years and I don't think it supports the Apple silicon architecture. So it was a relief when I found this app. But there is one simple thing where this app could be improved on. That is to have a status indicator of whether the automatic formating clear is on or off, so that you don't need to click the app icon to see if you it's on. The old app I used achieved this by the mebubar icon switching between two different grey scale, so when the formating clear is on, the icon is white, and when it's off, the icon is greyed out. I wish the author would adopt this idea. Thank you.
United StatesPerfect. Highly Recommend!!
Honestly, this app is perfect. Unobtrusive, functional, intuitive settings, and it removes tracking parameters! Thank you Sindre!
