Copy Link to Pasteboard Downloads & RevenueCopy Link to Pasteboard · App Store

Tired of manually copying a page title, then the URL, then assembling [Title](URL) by hand? Safari on iPhone and iPad doesn't come with a good way to copy links as Markdown, rich text, or HTML — and that's exactly what CopyLinkToPasteboard fixes. One tap, and the link is on your clipboard in whatever format you need.

CopyLinkToPasteboard is a native Safari extension for iPhone and iPad that copies the current tab's link to your clipboard in 7 built-in formats plus fully customizable templates. Whether you're pasting into Obsidian, Notion, Slack, GitHub, or an email, there's a format ready to go.

■ 7 Built-in Formats

• Markdown — [Title](URL). For Obsidian, Notion, Bear, Logseq, GitHub issues, pull requests, README files, or any Markdown editor.
• HyperLink (Rich Text / RTF) — A clickable rich text link for Apple Mail, Gmail, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Pages, Keynote, Word, or Google Docs.
• HTML with charset — Properly encoded （a） anchor tag with charset declaration for WordPress or CMS platforms.
• HTML as Text — The raw （a href） tag as plain text for code editors, HTML templates, or CMS source views.
• Title and URL — Page title on line one, URL on line two. For emails, chats, Jira comments, or meeting notes.
• Title only — Just the page title for spreadsheets, reference lists, or bookmarks.
• URL only — The bare URL for terminal commands, configuration files, or plain sharing.

■ Custom Format Templates — Build Exactly What You Need

Create your own output formats using ${title} and ${url} placeholder variables:
• Slack: ＜${url}｜${title}＞
• Jira / Confluence: [${title}|${url}]
• LaTeX: \href{${url}}{${title}}
• BBCode: [url=${url}]${title}[/url]
• Tab-separated (for spreadsheets): ${title}\t${url}
Define as many templates as you need. They appear in the extension popup alongside built-in formats.

■ Smart Link Text — Use Selected Text as the Link Title

Select text on any web page before copying, and your selection automatically becomes the link title instead of the page title. Works with every format, including custom templates.
