Clipboard Manager: Retrace

Clipboard Manager & Copy History Tracker Never lose copied text, a link, or a note again. Retrace is a clipboard history app that automatically saves everything you copy, in the background, instantly, with no extra effort. Whether you're a developer copying code snippets, a student saving research links, or just tired of losing that address you copied 10 minutes ago. Retrace gives your Android phone an infinite clipboard memory. How does it work? Retrace uses Android's Accessibility Service API to detect system "Copied to clipboard" notifications. When a copy action is detected anywhere on your device, Retrace securely reads the clipboard content and saves it to your local history automatically. ⚠️ Accessibility Service Usage: Retrace uses the AccessibilityService API strictly to monitor system notifications for copy events. The Accessibility Service does NOT read your screen content, does NOT record keystrokes, and does NOT interact with other apps. All clipboard data is stored locally on your device and is never collected, shared, or transmitted to any server. ✨ Key Features: - Clipboard History: Every piece of text you copy is saved automatically. Scroll back through days or weeks of clipboard history anytime. - True Background Saving: Copy text in any app — Retrace saves it instantly. No manual pasting required. - Infinite Clipboard Memory: No limits on how many items you save. - Favorites & Pinning: Star your most-used clips to keep them at the top. - Smart Link Detection: Copied a URL? Retrace turns it into a clickable link so you can jump straight back to the webpage. - Search Your History: Find any copied text in seconds with built-in search. - Privacy First, Always: Your clipboard data never leaves your device. Stored 100% locally — no cloud sync, no account, no tracking. - Material You Design: A beautiful dark UI with edge-to-edge design built for modern Android. 🔒 Your Privacy Is Non-Negotiable: Unlike other clipboard managers, Retrace stores everything locally on your device.
