What “Paste for Android” actually means
People typing paste app Android usually just left iOS. They want: a history of copies, pins for snippets, paste without opening a separate window, and not another subscription. They do not always want iCloud-style sync — and many specifically do not want the clipboard in the cloud.
Soloclip matches the on-device half of that job. It does not match Paste’s design language, membership, or multi-device library. That is intentional.
