Organizing your snips

Search and tags

Find anything instantly and use tags to keep snips grouped and protected.

Open the tray and just start typing — search behaves like Spotlight, matching across content, source app, file name, and even color values.

Search filters

  • Type any text for a fuzzy match across your whole history.
  • Use type prefixes like color:, code:, or image: to narrow by snip type.
  • Use #tagname to show only snips carrying that tag.

Tagging snips

  1. 1 Highlight a snip and press T.
  2. 2 Type a tag name and press Return.
  3. 3 Filter to it any time with #tagname in the search bar.

Tip

Tagged snips survive auto-cleanup, so tagging is a lightweight way to keep something without pinning it.
