ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

NetHome Plus holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NetHome Plus has 14K ratings behind it against 455, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 30% of NetHome Plus'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.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

NetHome Plus ships an update every 3 weeks, Uni TV Remote monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
