# BetterClip vs Clipboard PRO

The clearest difference is update cadence: Clipboard PRO at monthly against BetterClip's every 3 months. Clipboard PRO also leads on ratings volume (118 vs 7). BetterClip's advantage is review sentiment (77% vs 60%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.6). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BetterClip sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Clipboard PRO sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Clipboard PRO holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clipboard PRO has 118 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of BetterClip's written reviews are positive against 60% of Clipboard PRO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

BetterClip ships an update every 3 months, Clipboard PRO monthly. Both last shipped on November 7, 2026.
