Perch sits in your menu bar with a clipboard history, expanding snippets, a fully programmable mouse and a super key. All of it follows whichever app is in front.
or install from Terminal, skips the security warning
Everything you copy, one shortcut away: search, pin, paste.
Press ⌘⇧V in any app. A floating popup appears, fully keyboard-driven, and the app you came from keeps focus the whole time.
Abbreviations expand anywhere you can type. Placeholders resolve the moment they land.
Click, double-click and hold are three separate actions on every button. Add flick gestures, per-app scroll control and a pointer acceleration override.
Hold one chosen button and every other button gains a second action. Click, double-click and hold each get their own slot, and each hold key carries its own set of combos.
Remap any key or shortcut. Turn Caps Lock into a Hyper Key: a private ⌘⌥⌃⇧ layer no app will ever fight you for. Double-tap a modifier to run an action.
Mouse and keyboard behavior follows whichever app is in front, automatically. The same press does different things, because you meant different things.
Free, forever. No account, no tracking, no subscription.
