ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CopyPaste holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CopyPaste has 6 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Offline Dictation's written reviews are positive against 44% of CopyPaste's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Offline Dictation ships an update fortnightly, CopyPaste weekly. The most recent releases landed on June 7, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
