HovText is one of those applications that aim to enhance your experience when using a Windows-based machine. How? It allows one to tweak the functions and responsiveness of the clipboard for a boost in operability and maneuverability. The app has slowly evolved into a more and more complex and finished product.

The best part about this app is you won't have to worry about installing it every time you feel the clipboard is limiting you. The included hotkey commands are of great help and even more so since you can alter them as you wish for whatever purpose you need. Keep track of the trail of information you've moved through the clipboard with this app. Adjust its particularities. Decide on the width and length of the window, as well as the number of elements it can display.

Don't forget that in order to be able to use all these perks, the machine you run this app on must have .NET Framework mandatorily installed on it. There are no other options if you need to run HovText. Further settings allow one to change the color of the windows that display history and many other particularities of your moved text.

While there will rarely be any need to check the log file for inconsistencies or have the app reset to its original values, these provided options, once more, prove that the developers behind this app wanted to give the user as much freedom to experiment as possible. This is a great aid, especially if you want to start anew on another machine but don't really want to delete and redownload the app. If for some reason you're experiencing glitches or bugs, there is an Enable troubleshoot logging checkbox you can have ticked in order to see what's causing your problems.

The bottom line with HovText is that it will prove to be a great addition to your cause, especially if you find yourself moving a hefty amount of information through the Windows clipboard. It offers various tweaks for a tailored experience and ultimately gives users as much freedom as they need.

What's new in HovText 2024-February-2:

  • Signed application with an (IV) code signing certificate (valid for 10 years)
  • Fixed it could not display clipboard entries with more than 64Kb text in the clipboard list
  • Fixed it will not briefly show application window at Windows startup (before minimizing it)
  • Fixed showing images in the clipboard list is now much faster
