Common Patterns Across All Users

1. Pin Groups Are Essential

Every power user creates multiple Pin groups:

Project-based: Separate groups for each project or client
Category-based: Groups by content type (credentials, templates, assets)
Workflow-based: Groups for specific tasks (research, publishing, deployment)

2. Custom Aliases Add Context

Renaming clipboard items with descriptive aliases:

"Primary Button Color" instead of "#3B82F6"
"Production DB Connection" instead of a connection string
"Client X Logo - Dark Mode" instead of "logo.png"

3. Search Is a Superpower

Full-text search across all clipboard history:

Find anything instantly without scrolling
Use OR search (|) for multiple terms
Search works on content, aliases, and metadata

4. Keyboard Shortcuts Save Time

Power users master these shortcuts:

Cmd+1-9 for instant access to top 9 items
Cmd+[ / Cmd+] to switch between Pin groups
Cmd+Shift+Z to paste previous item without opening panel

5. Paste Stack for Repetitive Tasks

Multi-field forms and repetitive pasting:

Copy multiple items in sequence
Enter Paste Stack mode
Paste each item with Cmd+V

Tips from Power Users

Organization

Use colors and icons: Make Pin groups visually distinct
Name groups clearly: Use descriptive names like "Project Alpha - API Keys"
Archive old groups: Delete or rename groups when projects end

Security

Pin sensitive data: Keep credentials in Pin groups, not in history
Set retention periods: Auto-delete old items to minimize exposure
Exclude password managers: Avoid duplicate entries

Efficiency

Learn shortcuts: Keyboard shortcuts are 10x faster than mouse
Use aliases: Rename items for better searchability
Leverage search: Use full-text search instead of scrolling

Workflow

Morning setup: Pin frequently used items at the start of each day
End-of-day review: Pin anything worth keeping, let the rest auto-delete
Project templates: Create Pin group templates for recurring project types

The Numbers

Here's what our power users report:

Average time saved: 1-2 hours per day
Reduction in context switching: 60-70%
Faster information retrieval: 5-10x compared to manual search
Fewer errors: 40% reduction in copy-paste mistakes
Improved organization: 90% report better information management

Getting Started with Power User Workflows

Identify your pain points: What do you copy most often?
Create Pin groups: Organize by project, category, or workflow
Add custom aliases: Make items searchable and memorable
Learn shortcuts: Master Cmd+1-9 and Cmd+[/]
Iterate: Refine your workflow based on what works
