# Clipboard vs The Informant

The clearest difference is rating: The Informant at 5.0 against Clipboard's 4.2. The Informant also leads on monetization model (free vs freemium). Clipboard's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clipboard sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and The Informant sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

The Informant holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clipboard has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Clipboard ships an update every 10 days, The Informant every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
