Example¶
Illustrative example. Fictional product (Clipnest, a Mac clipboard app) and made-up numbers.
I lost a receipt I had copied 2 hours earlier. That was the last time.
Today Clipnest is out: clipboard history for Mac you can search, even inside images.
Free for 50 clips, Pro $19 once. Mac App Store.
Try it and tell me what breaks.
