Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Payload at none against Clipboard's 5. Payload also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 92%). Clipboard's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (17 vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
