Samsara Driver holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3.

Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Samsara Driver's written reviews are positive against 100% of Clypboard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Samsara Driver ships an update every 3 weeks, Clypboard every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
