Step-by-Step Guide to Using Online Clipboard

This guide walks you through every feature of Rune's Online Clipboard — from basic sending to advanced options like self-destruct and QR code sharing.

Sending Content

Step 1: Choose Content Type

Before pasting, select the appropriate type:

• Plain Text: Notes, messages, URLs
• Code: Programming snippets (enables syntax highlighting)
• Markdown: Formatted notes with headings and lists

Step 2: Paste Your Content

Click the text area and paste:

• Windows/Linux: Ctrl+V
• Mac: Cmd+V
• Mobile: Long-press and select "Paste"

Step 3: Select Language (Code Mode)

When you choose Code mode, select the programming language for syntax highlighting — JavaScript, Python, HTML, CSS, and 20+ more.

Step 4: Enable Self-Destruct (Optional)

For sensitive content, toggle on "Burn After Reading." Content will be permanently deleted after first retrieval.

Step 5: Send

Click Send. You'll receive:

• A unique code (e.g., "ABC123")
• A shareable link
• A QR code option

Receiving Content

Step 1: Get the Code

The sender shares a code via text, email, or verbally.

Step 2: Enter and Retrieve

1. Navigate to the clipboard
2. Enter the code in the Receive section
3. Click Retrieve
4. Copy the content for use

Using QR Codes

Generate

After sending, click the QR Code button to display a scannable code.

Scan

• iPhone: Open Camera, point at QR, tap notification
• Android: Open Camera or Google Lens, point at QR, tap link

QR codes are faster than typing — especially for phone-to-computer transfers.

Using History

Your last 10 clipboard entries are saved locally in your browser:

1. Open the History section
2. Click any previous entry
3. Code auto-enters for quick retrieval

Note: History is browser-specific and stored locally — it doesn't sync across devices.
