Jump to History: finding something is only half the problem
Every day, Paste saves everything you copy. Links, messages, snippets, notes — all the things you capture in the flow of work and may need again later. Over time, that becomes a detailed record of how you think and what you work on.
Search makes it easy to find any of it. But finding something is only half the problem. The other half is getting back to where it was.
Context is what you were really looking for
When you search your clipboard, you are often not just looking for one item. You are looking for a moment, a session when you were researching something, writing something, or pulling together references. The item you find in search is a thread. What you actually need is everything connected to it.
Jump to History makes that possible. Move from any search result directly to the item's original location in your clipboard history or a pinboard. The search closes, and the item appears in context, with everything around it exactly as it was.
The feature is deliberately simple. Right-click any result in search and choose Show in Clipboard, or Show in Pinboard if the item is from a pinboard. You can also press Cmd+G on macOS. What was once a result becomes a starting point.
It is available on both macOS and iOS, and it works across clipboard history and pinboards.
How people use it
For a developer tracking down a code snippet, Jump to History means landing back in the session where it was written, with the related error messages and references still nearby.
For a designer collecting references, it means finding a link from an afternoon of research and returning to everything else saved around the same time.
For a writer working on a draft, it means locating a quote from earlier in the day and seeing all the notes copied around it still in place.
However you work, Jump to History brings back the moment, not just the result.
