Today, in 2011, I released Yoink v1.0 to the public, and it looked like this:
I know, right? Its icon looked a bit different, too:
Anyway, long story short, I’m having a sale over this weekend on the App Stores, where you can purchase Yoink for Mac and Yoink for iPad and iPhone at a discount.
From today, November 25th, 2022, to the end of Sunday, November 27th, all my apps are on sale for Black Friday!
Yoink for Mac
Moving files and app-content on your Mac around can be cumbersome. Yoink for Mac makes it so much easier (plus lots of other features, like a clipboard monitoring widget – please refer to the website for more info):
Yoink for Mac currently holds a rating of 4.8/5.0 on the US Mac App Store and has frequently been featured by Apple
Yoink for iPad and iPhone is your place to store snippets and files, and sync them across all your iOS devices; via Handoff, you can transfer them to or from a Mac as well!
Yoink for iPad and iPhone currently holds a rating of 4.7/5.0 on the US App Store
It also features clipboard monitoring, which, via Picture-in-Picture, works even if Yoink is completely dismissed. You can also use its Picture-in-Picture functionality to display images, websites, PDFs, eMails and more (you can even scroll through them).
With Transloader, you can initiate downloads on your Macs – remotely from your iPhones, iPads, and other Macs.
Transloader currently holds a rating of 4.8/5.0 on the US Mac App Store.
With its custom Link- and File Actions, you can automate Transloader to your liking whenever it receives a link (Link Action), or successfully downloads a file (File Action).
With ScreenFloat, you can take your screenshots to the next level. Take a screenshot, and it will float above all other windows and spaces, allowing you to reference their contents wherever you are. Organize shots with tags and categories in its Shots Browser.
ScreenFloat currently holds a rating of 4.9/5.0 on the US Mac App Store.
And don’t forget: ScreenFloat 2.0 is in development and will be a free upgrade for existing customers!
If you’re using Yoink for iPad and iPhone’s Clipboard Monitor – which, if active, automatically saves anything you copy from other apps, even if Yoink is completely in the background –, you’re probably familiar with this dialog since iOS 16:
While this is useful information for apps you wouldn’t expect to be pasting at that moment, if you’ve activated Yoink’s Clipboard Monitor, you don’t want to have to confirm each and every single paste operation – it can get annoying very quickly:
I did file a feedback with Apple for adding an option to “Always Allow” pastes during the early days of iOS 16, and thankfully, in iOS 16.1, they introduced exactly that:
How to enable Always Allow “Paste from Other Apps” for Yoink.
– Open Settings.app – Scroll all the way down to Yoink and select it – Tap on Paste from Other Apps – Select Allow
With this enabled (you can revoke it at any time using the same steps), you go from the confirmation-hell above to this:
When copying now, Yoink’s Clipboard Monitor picks up the copied item right away, without confirmation. A notification that a paste occurred is displayed.
You’ll still get notified that Yoink pasted from the source app, but you won’t need to confirm the paste each time 🥲
