# Copy and Paste vs Clipboard

The clearest difference is rating: Copy and Paste at 4.6 against Clipboard's 3.7. Copy and Paste also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (3.3K vs 464). Clipboard's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (45% vs 32%). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clipboard sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $0.99 per month. Copy and Paste asks for nothing beyond the download.

Copy and Paste holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Copy and Paste has 3.3K ratings behind it against 464, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of Copy and Paste's written reviews are positive against 45% of Clipboard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Copy and Paste ships an update monthly, Clipboard every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
