Overview
New Years Sale Now On!!! - Buy now to save ahead of improvements coming in early 2018!!
The Clipboard feature is now available in this update - The description went out incorrectly previously which is why the function appeared to be missing. We have more planned for remote clipboard and this is just an early version of it for you to try out.
After getting this version open it on your devices to make sure the endpoints are registered, it may take a few minutes for the new feature to start working - I'm working with the Microsoft API to further improve speed and reliability where possible.
New feature in 1.6.1: Remote Clipboard feature added correctly
New feature in 1.4.2: Remote Dialler added to Hand Off
Hand Off provides a set of tools to help you work seamlessly across your Windows 10 devices. Use the core "Hand Off" feature to continue a task on another device, the Remote Dialler feature lets you trigger a new call on a second device, and Remote Clipboard lets you quickly send content between your devices.
Hand Off continues to get new features which will be free to existing owners of the Windows 10 app. We are dedicated to making this the best tool to help you work seamlessly across all your devices.

There are many other ways to use the sharing feature with this app, experiment by using the share option in other apps you have on your devices.
