ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Paste Keyboard holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Paste Keyboard has 779 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Copyboard'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.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Copyboard ships an update every 3 weeks, Paste Keyboard fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
