Brand-new feature: add content from your clipboard

One of the most versatile features of your computer is your clipboard. With this feature, you can move text, images, or links from one program to another. And now, it also works a treat with start.me. Here’s how.

Quick instructions

It’s always been easy to add content to your start.me page. Now, it’s even more practical:

1. Copy the content to your clipboard (Crtl-c or Command-c).
2. Open your start.me page.
3. Press paste (Crtl-v or Command-v).
4. Now we will analyze your data and suggest a widget to use. For example: the Notes widget for text, a Bookmarks widget for bookmarks, a To Do widget for lists. If there are more options, you can choose one.
5. Click Add widget to confirm.

For more information about the use of your clipboard, check the support pages for Windows and Apple.
