iOS Home Screen Widget

View your clipboard on the iPhone or iPad home screen without opening the app. This is a Pro feature.

CrossPaste provides two widget types in multiple sizes:

  • Recent Pastes: Displays multiple recent clipboard items at a glance.
  • Latest Paste: Shows a single item — your most recent clipboard entry.

Add to Home Screen

  1. Long-press on an empty area of your home screen.
  2. Tap the "+" button in the top-left corner.
  3. Search for CrossPaste in the widget gallery.
  4. Select the widget type and size you prefer.
  5. Tap Add Widget.
  6. Drag the widget to your desired position and tap Done.

Lock Screen Widget

  1. Long-press on your lock screen.
  2. Tap Customize > Lock Screen.

The lock screen widget is the fastest way to check your latest clipboard entry — no unlock needed.
