Copying and pasting cards

Copy cards from one board and paste them into another, on the same device or a different one.

Copy

• One card: right-click (press and hold) the card > Copy card.
• A bucket's open cards: the bucket's ⋯ > Copy work order.
• A whole board's open cards: the board's ⋯ > Copy work order (all open cards).
• Several cards: Ctrl click them, then Copy work order in the bar that appears.

The copy is readable text, so you can also paste it into a note, an email or an AI chat.

Paste

1. Open the board you want them on.
2. The board's ⋯ > Paste cards…, or a bucket's ⋯ > Paste cards here….
3. Pick the bucket under Into. The cards box fills in from the clipboard when the device allows it; otherwise press and hold in the box and choose Paste.
4. Check the preview ("3 cards: …") and click Add 3 cards.

On a computer you can also just press Ctrl V while looking at a board.

Pasted cards keep their titles, descriptions, checklists, labels, priority, dates and people. People who aren't in your list yet are added.

Paste a list from anywhere

A plain list works too: each line becomes a card, and indented lines become its checklist.

- Groceries
  - Milk
  - Eggs
- Call the plumber

Between devices

Copy on one device and paste on another if your devices share a clipboard (for example Windows and Android with Phone Link, or KDE Connect on Linux). Inside the phone app, copy from your computer's boards and paste into the phone's own boards: they share the phone's clipboard.

To move a whole board instead, see Moving boards between devices.
