CloudClip puts your clips into iCloud Drive and then relies on Apple to do the sync. This has generally been reliable with recent versions of the OS but has been getting less reliable with older versions.
If things don't seem to be working properly, try the following on all your devices.
- Check all your devices are using the same iCloud account, and have working internet access.
- Check iCloud Drive is enabled on all your devices.
- Try deleting the contents of CloudClip in iCloud settings -> Manage Storage and then adding some new clips
- Try restarting your devices.
- Try disabling and then re-enabling iCloud Drive on your devices.
- Try disabling and then re-enabling CloudClip specifically in Settings -> iCloud on iOS devices
- Finally, if none of those work (give them up to 30 minutes to "kick in"), you can try signing out of iCloud entirely and then signing back in. Note that this will trigger features like iCloud Photo Library to re-sync as well, which could be quite time consuming, and it will require some time for the system services to resync before apps like CloudClip will be refreshed.
iCloud settings are found at:
- Settings -> Apple ID -> iCloud on recent iOS devices
- Settings -> iCloud on older iOS devices
- System Preferences -> Apple ID -> iCloud on recent Macs
- System Preferences -> iCloud on older Macs
