Clipy/Clipy

Clipy is a Clipboard extension app for macOS.

---

Requirement: macOS 13 Ventura or later

Distribution Site : https://clipy-app.com

Development Environment

• macOS 26 Tahoe
• Xcode 26.5

How to Build

macOS checks Accessibility permission by the app's code signature. If Clipy is built without a stable signing certificate, macOS may ask for Accessibility permission again for every build.

For this reason, the default signing settings use the Clipy signing certificate. This certificate is available only to the maintainer, so local builds require switching to ad-hoc signing before building.

Build for ad-hoc usage

1. Open Clipy.xcodeproj in Xcode.
2. Switch to ad-hoc build mode:
   1. Open Configurations/CodeSigning.xcconfig.
   2. Uncomment #include "Configurations/CodeSigning-AdHoc.xcconfig".
3. Build the Clipy scheme.

If you want to use Firebase features, place your own GoogleService-Info.plist in Clipy/GoogleService. This file is not required for local builds without Firebase.
