# WordBoard vs ClipboardClear

The clearest difference is rating: WordBoard at 4.9 against ClipboardClear's 4.0. WordBoard also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (5.6K vs 1). ClipboardClear's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 77%) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WordBoard sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and ClipboardClear sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

WordBoard holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WordBoard has 5.6K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of WordBoard's written reviews are positive against 100% of ClipboardClear's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

WordBoard ships an update every 3 weeks, ClipboardClear monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
