Step 4: Paste Content

• Share: Select an item, right-click or use ⌘ Command + ⇧ Shift + S to share via Mail, Messages, AirDrop, etc.

III. Advanced Tips for Common Features

3.1 Efficient Search Techniques

• Use “type:” filters in the search box, e.g., type type:image to show only images, type:text to show only text.
• To search for a specific source app, try typing part of the app name.

3.2 Quick Actions

• In any application, directly press the invoke shortcut (e.g., ⌥ Option + ⌘ Command + V), then start typing to search, press Enter to paste—no mouse needed throughout.
• In compact mode, use ⌘ Command + [1-9] number keys to quickly paste one of the latest 9 records in the list.

• In “Preferences” > “Rules”, add sensitive applications (e.g., password managers, banking clients), and Paste will not record copy content from these apps.
• Regularly clear history in preferences or set automatic cleanup rules.

3.4 Integration with Spotlight

• Although Paste’s own search is powerful, you can also use Spotlight (⌘ Command + Space) to search for “Paste” to quickly open its main window.
