Updates, at the top of General

General opens with which version you are on and the day it came out, a badge reading Up to date, Update available or Could not check, and when Tucket last looked. Check Now looks again, and turns into Install when there is something newer.

There is a link to the notes for every release as well, so you can see what changed before you install it.

General

Setting	Default	When you would change it
Keep last N	50	Raise it if you lose things before you get back to them. Range is 25 to 1000. Pinboard clips do not count towards it.
Unlimited	Off	You would rather be limited only by disk space.
Storage	n/a	Read-only. Check it if you are wondering what Tucket is using.
Launch at login	Off	You want it there every morning without opening it.
Fetch link previews	On	Turn it off if you would rather Tucket made no network requests for your clips. Links then show as bare URLs.
Pasting multiple clips → Pace	1×	Raise it if an app cannot keep up while several clips paste. Range 0.5× to 3×.
Clear History	n/a	Deletes your saved clips. Pinned clips are kept unless you tick the box to delete those too.
License	n/a	Your key, and Deactivate & Quit when moving Macs.

Everything about how Tucket opens moved to its own tab, Opening Tucket, in 1.3.8.

Opening Tucket

Setting	Default	When you would change it
Open Tucket when I hover at the top of the screen	On	Turn it off and Tucket only opens when you press a shortcut. The best fix if hovering keeps catching you out.
How wide the spot is	220pt	Narrow it if the popup opens when you reach for the menu bar.
How far down it reaches	24pt	The same problem on the other axis.
How long to rest there	0.35s	Raise it and a quick sweep past no longer counts as resting there.
Keyboard shortcuts	n/a	The list of shortcuts that work even with hovering off.
Close when the pointer moves away	Off	You want the popup to shut itself once you move away, rather than staying until you paste.
Wait before closing	n/a	How long it waits before closing itself. Only applies with the switch above on.

Move any slider and the real spot flashes at the top of your screen, so you can judge it by eye rather than by number. Reset puts all three back.

Appearance

Setting	Default	When you would change it
Skin	Glass	Whenever you fancy. Six of them, see Skins.

Pinboards

Make a board with +, rename or delete one, and see how many clips each holds. Drag the handle to reorder them: the top board shows first in the popup. Covered properly in Pinboards.

Jot

Setting	Default	When you would change it
Let me note new clips	Off	You want to write down why you kept something, as you keep it.
Position	Center	The panel is in your way. Five corners, or drag it anywhere.
Set position	n/a	Opens it with no timer so you can place it properly.
Stays for	5s	It vanishes before you have decided. Range 2 to 20s. Clicking in stops the clock entirely.
Which copies bring it up	Images + Links	Per-format switches. Turn on Text if you take a lot of written notes.

Privacy

Setting	Default	When you would change it
Block sensitive clips	On	Leave it on. Off stores secrets but blurs them behind a lock instead of never saving them.
Find clips from Spotlight	Off	You want to find clips from ⌘Space. It copies clip text into the macOS search index, so it is a choice rather than a default.
Pause clipboard capture	Off (capturing)	You are about to do something you would rather Tucket did not see.
Ignored Apps	Empty	Add your password manager, terminal or banking app.

Intelligence

Setting	Default	When you would change it
AI summaries for long clips	On	Turn it off if you would rather see the raw first line. Needs Apple Intelligence, and without it this does nothing either way.
Custom tagging	Off	You want to rename a tag right after it is generated rather than from the right-click menu later.
