# Clipsync vs Clipboard

The clearest difference is rating: Clipsync at 5.0 against Clipboard's 4.4. Clipsync also leads on ads (none vs shown). Clipboard's advantage is ratings volume (482 vs 2) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clipsync sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Clipboard sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Clipsync holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clipboard has 482 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Clipsync ships an update every 4 months, Clipboard monthly. Both last shipped on November 7, 2026.
