Every clipboard gives back what you copied. Sherbet knows where it goes.

For the history alone, you probably should not. Raycast's is good and it is already on your Mac. The only question worth asking is whether you want the boxes filled too, because that is the part no clipboard manager does, and it is the entire reason this one exists. If your email appearing on a site you have never opened does not sound useful, Sherbet Clipboard has nothing to offer you.

Yes, and in Dia, Brave and Edge. Native Mac apps work the same way.

It becomes an ordinary clipboard manager. History, search, folders, tags, editing and paste-on-Enter all work. The notch never appears, Fill All finds nothing, and the magic paste shortcut does nothing. You can grant it later, or never.

Three separate mechanisms exist to stop that. Password managers mark a copied secret, and anything carrying that mark is dropped before it is stored. Apple's Passwords app and Keychain Access mark nothing, so they start on Sherbet's ignore list, which covers the Passwords menu bar too. Anything that gets past is checked again by a deliberately over-eager credential test before it can ever become an autofill candidate, which is tuned to throw away things it is unsure about. It does not learn passwords from typing either: it never reads a password box, and while macOS's password protection is on it reads only the box you just left, after checking that box is not a password box.

None of this covers a password you copy from anywhere else. If you copy one out of a plain text file, treat it as being in your history, and clear it.

No. When a value is put on the clipboard to fill a box it is marked this-machine-only, so it does not travel over Universal Clipboard the way an ordinary copy would. There is no sync of any kind.

Yes. An app on the ignored list is fully insulated: nothing is captured from it, nothing is suggested inside it, and nothing is learned there. You can also pause capturing altogether from the menu bar, and set history to be forgotten after 7, 30 or 90 days.

No. Free needs nothing at all. If you upgrade to Pro you get a licence key by email and paste it into the app once. There is no sign-in, no profile and no password. Sherbet makes two kinds of network connection, a licence check and an update check, and neither carries anything you copy, type or fill; every value it stores stays a file on your own disk. The privacy policy says exactly what each one sends.

Yes. Sherbet is free to download and keeps working as a clipboard history for good; Pro adds the autofill (the Free plan lists exactly what stays on). Every install starts with a 7-day Pro trial of the complete app, with no card and no account. When it ends you are on Free, nothing is deleted, and everything reappears the moment you upgrade.

Your history is five plain JSON files in your own Library folder. They are not encrypted, not held anywhere else, and nothing uploads them, so they stay exactly where they are and stay readable. If you cancel, Pro lasts until the end of the period you paid for, then Sherbet carries on as Free while the rest of your history waits, undeleted, for you to upgrade again. The terms have the full wording.

Yes. Email support@sherbetapps.com within 14 days of your first payment and it is refunded, no questions asked. Renewals are not covered, but you can cancel at any time in the customer portal, before one charges. See the refund policy.

Support has the address and what to include. A licence key that is stuck on an old Mac can be released from Settings, then Tools & Licence, without writing to anyone. If that Mac is gone, deactivate it yourself at My Orders on Lemon Squeezy, signing in with the email you bought with.
