XClip is a clipboard history and snippet text management tool. Through XClip, you can quickly input predetermined text and clipboard history content on the keyboard, and you can also use a calculator in the input textfield to calculate. For an excellent user experience, XClip App has made the following optimizations: 1. Developed natively with SwiftUI, it does not contain third-party components and libraries, so it is very small, less than 1M. 2. The whole process runs offline, and there will be no pop-up window requesting to connect to the Internet on the mobile phone. 3. Does not read any data of the user except the clipboard, and does not require any permissions. 4. Use picture-in-picture to monitor the clipboard in the background, and record the history of the clipboard without returning to the app in frequently copied scenes. 5. Fully adapt to the night mode, and the black and white theme will automatically switch with the system. The developer will continue to optimize this app, please feel free to use an app that does not require networking. Terms of Use : https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Live Data Widgets at free against XClip's free with in-app purchases. Live Data Widgets also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 83%) and update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). XClip's advantage is ratings volume (12 vs 2). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. XClip sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per year and Live Data Widgets sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for XClip against 5.0 for Live Data Widgets. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: XClip has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 83% of XClip's written reviews are positive against 100% of Live Data Widgets's.
XClip ships an update fortnightly, Live Data Widgets every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on August 23, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
