# Midea Air vs Uni TV Remote

The clearest difference is rating: Midea Air at 4.8 against Uni TV Remote's 3.8. Midea Air also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (28K vs 458). Uni TV Remote's advantage is review sentiment (36% vs 25%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Midea Air holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Midea Air has 28K ratings behind it against 458, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Midea Air's written reviews are positive against 36% of Uni TV Remote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Midea Air ships an update every 5 weeks, Uni TV Remote monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
