Snippets

How to pin clipboard snippets on Android

The clips you reuse every week should not live in a one-hour Gboard drawer. Pin them. Soloclip treats pins and snippet folders as Pro: they stay on this phone and skip the 30-day cleanup.

Pins are for the text you should never retype

Pin clipboard snippets when the same string shows up every week: office Wi-Fi, a unit address, VAT numbers, a polite “running five minutes late.” Gboard can pin a handful in its drawer. A manager should let you search, folder, and insert them from a keyboard.

In Soloclip, pins live in the Pins tab. Folders group snippets (for example Addresses). They are stored on-device. They are not a cloud snippet library.

Folders vs a flat pin list

Use a folder when you have more than a few staples. Keep the pin strip for the two or three you grab from Quick Settings. Do not pin OTPs or passwords — those are filtered or short-lived on purpose.

Pin clipboard snippets FAQ

Do pins expire?

No. Unpinned history defaults to 30 days. Pins never auto-clear.

Are snippet folders on the free tier?

No. Pins and folders are Pro.

Can I use this as a text expander?

Soloclip inserts the full snippet from the keyboard. It does not expand trigger abbreviations in Gboard via Accessibility.
