# QuickPaste vs XClip

The clearest difference is ads: XClip at none against QuickPaste's shown. XClip also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.5). QuickPaste's advantage is ratings volume (94 vs 12) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. QuickPaste sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and XClip sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

XClip holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QuickPaste has 94 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 77% of QuickPaste's written reviews are positive against 83% of XClip's.

QuickPaste ships an update fortnightly, XClip every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
