Yoink for iPhone and iPad stores anything you can throw at it: file drags, content like images or text, eMails, downloads, and more.
It syncs across your iOS devices.

It lets you “pin” PDFs, eMails, Websites, Images, and more in Picture-in-Picture for reference in any app.
It integrates with your Files app.
It lets you build powerful Shortcuts.
It’s there when you need it.

What’s New in Yoink v2.5.4?

  • In the Files app, Yoink now only shows the highest-fidelity representation of a file instead of all of them1, making it easier to navigate and select files
  • New contextual menu items in the Files app allow you to copy the contents of a file (as opposed to the file path), or a plain text representation of rich text formats
  • The stability and performance of the app have been improved, while fixing a few bugs and UI issues

  1. For instance, a rtf “rich text” file in Yoink has its rich text data representation, as well as a plain text one. Previously, Yoink would show this file as two files inside a container folder in Files.app, now it’s one file: the rtf. ↩︎

Yoink for iPad and iPhone v2.4.1 is now available on the App Store.
It’s a maintenance update, improving its Clipboard Monitor, certain areas of its UI, as well as general performance and stability.

Yoink is a file- and snippet “shelf”, in a “hold this for me while I do something else for a while” sort of way.
Anything you can drag, copy, share or download, you can store in Yoink.
When you eventually need it, you can access files either directly from within the app, Yoink’s custom keyboard, and Siri Shortcuts. It also syncs across your iOS devices via iCloud.

What’s New in Yoink v2.4.1?

+ Improvements to Yoink’s Background Clipboard Monitor

When active, the Clipboard Monitor will save anything you copy or cut in other apps, even if Yoink itself is in the background.

  • v2.4.1 now allows you to start, pause, update and end your Clipboard Monitor sessions with Siri Shortcuts.
    By “update”, I mean you can change its timeout, and which data type it should look out for (everything, links, texts or images).
  • In Settings.app > Yoink > Clipboard Monitor, you can enable Display Last Saved Item, which will show the item the Clipboard Monitor last stored in Yoink in its Picture-in-Picture overlay.
  • Also in Settings.app > Yoink > Clipboard Monitor, you can disable Confirm Monitoring, which, when starting the Clipboard Monitor from within Yoink, will forego all confirmation dialogs and start the Clipboard Monitor right away, as requested by a number of users.
  • The Clipboard Monitor can now be started from Yoink’s Home Screen Quick Actions
  • Lastly, instead of terminating the Clipboard Monitor entirely when a time out occurs, it now pauses instead, making it easier to restart it.
+ General Improvements
  • Downloads now show their state if Use Small Previews is enabled in Settings.app > Yoink > Appearance
  • Downloads now show the size of the download, if available
  • The UI for renaming files has been revamped to use more space
  • Editing a URL now refreshes its icon
  • Yoink’s Share extension now works faster
  • Maps/Location items are now a separate option in Yoink’s filter (accessible by tapping Showing All at the bottom)
  • Many bug- and crash fixes

Where can I get Yoink?

Yoink is available for iPad and iPhone on the App Store – a one-time purchase of $5.99 / € 5,99 / £ 4.99.
It requires iOS 14 or newer.
To sync across your iOS devices, an iCloud account is required.
