Copy something, open Copy This, and it is already saved. No taps, no setup, no cleanup later. Every clip becomes a tile: • Automatic capture the moment you open the app: text, links, and images • Tap a text clip to edit it in a clean full page editor with live character and word counts • Pinch to zoom images, or save them straight to Photos • Long press any tile to copy, share, open a link, or delete • Search your text and links by any word, and sort by newest, oldest, or largest • Set your own limits with Copy This Pro: keep up to 2,500 clips or go unlimited, and expire clips after an hour, a day, a week, a month, three months, a year, or keep them forever • Pin the clips that matter with Copy This Pro, and they are never removed automatically • Turn on iCloud sync with Copy This Pro and your clips follow you to your other devices, through iCloud • Clear everything from Settings, behind a confirmation so it never happens by accident Private by design. Copy This has no accounts, no ads, and no analytics, and it never sends anything to a server of ours. With Copy This Pro you can turn on iCloud sync, which keeps your clips in your own private iCloud database, in your Apple Account. It only reads your clipboard when the clipboard has actually changed since it last looked, under iOS's paste permission system, and anything a password manager marks confidential is never recorded. Copy This is free and keeps your latest 10 clips: capture, editing, search, and sharing all work on them. Copy This Pro is a one-time unlock that lets you keep more clips, go unlimited, set your own duration limits, keeps pinned clips out of every cleanup, and adds iCloud sync across your devices. No subscriptions, no ads, no accounts. Your clipboard, kept both fast and easy.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Copy This at 5.0 against Barcode Keyboard's 2.8. Copy This also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months). Barcode Keyboard's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
