SnippetCraft account and snippet sync settings on Mac

One library, multiple computers

Move between Macs without rebuilding your snippets.

Optional sync is useful when the same replies, commands, templates, and documented snippets belong in more than one workspace.

Start locally first

Evaluate the app and build a useful library before deciding whether an account adds value.

Synchronize reusable snippets

Keep the snippet library available across Macs where you sign in to SnippetCraft.

Keep clipboard history separate

Raw clipboard history remains local and is not uploaded as part of optional snippet synchronization.

Clear boundaries

Sync the library, not every copied item.

A reusable snippet is deliberately named, reviewed, and saved. Clipboard history is temporary and may contain sensitive content. SnippetCraft treats these workflows differently.

Only create an account when cross-Mac availability is useful.
Review sensitive values before saving them as reusable snippets.
Use export for an additional portable library backup.
Consult the Privacy Policy for current storage and infrastructure details.

Confirm on the second Mac

Check representative snippets and allow time for changes to appear before editing duplicates.
