# ClipboardClear vs Paste Keyboard

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ClipboardClear at 100% against Paste Keyboard's 25%. ClipboardClear also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Paste Keyboard's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.0) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ClipboardClear sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Paste Keyboard sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Paste Keyboard holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Paste Keyboard has 780 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of ClipboardClear's written reviews are positive against 25% of Paste Keyboard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

ClipboardClear ships an update monthly, Paste Keyboard fortnightly. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
