My Clipboard allows you to copy text seamlessly between any device. Companies such as Apple allow you to copy text seamlessly between devices made by them - for example Macs and iPhones - but not between devices outside of the ecosystem. This app is for that use case. You can set and read your cloud synced clipboard contents using this app, an app from another mobile platform, the Google Chrome extension, or the website.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: CrossDrop at 100% against My Clipboard's 50%. CrossDrop also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 26.0). My Clipboard's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
