How many items NotchStar clipboard history keeps
NotchStar keeps the 50 most recent items in its clipboard history. When a 51st item arrives, the oldest one is dropped. At most 10 of the 50 can be images.
What counts as one item
Text, a link, an image or a file each count as one item. Copying the same thing again does not add a second item, it moves the first to the top.
The list shows 30 rows at a time
Although 50 items are kept, the list in the notch shows the first 30 rows. To reach an older item in the 31 to 50 range, type a few letters in the search box. Search looks through all 50, and the results list shows up to 30 matching rows. See how to find an old copy.
Is the limit a setting
No. 50 and 10 are fixed in the app. There is no option to change them today.
Does time matter
The limit is a count, not a time. An item stays until 50 newer items push it out, or until you quit NotchStar, whichever comes first. See why history clears on quit.
Limits
- Copies from password managers that mark them concealed are never added, so they do not use up room.
- Whitespace only copies are ignored.
The full tool is on the Clipboard feature page.
