The ability to manipulate text almost makes Pastebot a sort of notepad application in addition to the intended functionality.

Text can be edited via the onscreen keyboard, plus you can run find and replace, and even wrap text in HTML tags very easily. Photos can be rotated, cropped, and converted to black and white or sepia, and you can adjust their brightness and saturation. One of the strengths of Pastebot is the ability to manipulate clippings once they are imported into the application. The search scans through the contents of text files and the names of image files. If a user has a large number of items to choose from, a real-time live search can be performed without changing screens. A blue graphic mimicking a blue LED lights up to indicate which is currently on the clipboard. An older item can be copied onto the system-wide clipboard by simply touching the item. Items are stored by default in the Clipboard section in chronological order. That functionality is reserved only for Apple's applications, as the company choses not to share the information necessary for third party developers to implement it. This means that if you copy a webpage in Safari, you aren't going to see the same images and text formatting in Pastebot. Additionally, Apple doesn't allow third-party developers to paste rich text from the clipboard. For now, you have to open Pastebot after copying an item-not ideal, but there's not much Tapbots could do about this. If you want that functionality, you are going to have to jailbreak your phone. Ideally, this application would run constantly in the background, sending each copied item into the app, but Apple doesn't allow this. There aren't many flaws in Pastebot, and most shortcomings are a result of Apple's decisions regarding its OS and what programming classes it makes available. While the application's intended purpose is to give you access to a clipboard history, you'll quickly find unintended uses that make it much more valuable. Pastebot is more powerful than the name suggests.
The folks at Tapbots have thought of everything, and Pastebot is the result. On the surface, Pastebot is a clipboard manager for your iPhone or iPod touch that stores clippings in a beautiful, intuitive UI, but it's more powerful than that. Tapbots is back with its third iPhone offering, and for those of you who are familiar with the company's beautifully designed applications, you will not be disappointed.
