Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: XKey at 4.7 against Auto Paste's 1.0. XKey also leads on ratings volume (19 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.1 vs 17.4). Auto Paste's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
