ClipboardX syncs text and images between Android and Windows, so you can copy on one device and use it on the other without sending things to yourself through a messenger. It includes clipboard history, an Android keyboard with direct clipboard access, QR device pairing and privacy controls. No account is required. I originally built it to solve my own frustration with moving logs, links and screenshots between my phone and PC.

Could you build this?
Partial Android 10+ strictly prohibits background clipboard reading, requiring workarounds like custom IME keyboards and local P2P networking.
What it would actually take: Requires a Windows service (C# or Rust) to intercept system clipboard events and a custom Android InputMethodService (virtual keyboard) to legitimately access clipboard content under modern Android sandbox rules. The devices must discover and securely sync payloads across local Wi-Fi or WebRTC without external server relays.
