Notes, timers and clipboard
Use supporting tools that accompany your work without requiring AI.
Open Utilities
In Settings → Utilities, find floating notes, timers, a stopwatch and clipboard history when included in your plan. These tools do not require an AI conversation.
Floating notes
Write a note, choose a color and display it as a reminder. The shelf gathers saved notes for later retrieval. Hiding a note keeps it; deletion is a separate action. Use colors to distinguish references, pending tasks and reminders without filling the screen.
Timers and stopwatch
Choose a suggested duration or adjust hours, minutes and seconds. Type a value, use the mouse wheel or drag the selector; Shift allows larger steps. Start the timer and check remaining time. Timers can notify you with Settings closed while the app remains running. The stopwatch supports starting, pausing and resetting.
Clipboard history
Enable Save history to recover previously copied text, images and files. Open history, search or filter entries and pin ones you want to keep. Check whether choosing an entry pastes immediately or only prepares it for pasting.
Control what is saved
Pause recording, limit entry count, disable image saving and exclude applications. Clearing unpinned entries preserves pinned ones: review those when removing specific information. Private-content signals help avoid recording, but do not replace pausing or excluding when handling information you do not want saved.
History is stored on that computer. If you ask the assistant to use it, review the context shared with the provider. See privacy.
