# Smart Projector Control vs TV Remote

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Smart Projector Control at 83% against TV Remote's 33%. Smart Projector Control also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 11) and ads (none vs shown). TV Remote's advantage is rating (4.0 vs 2.7) and update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months). On price and ratings volume there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TV Remote sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Smart Projector Control asks for nothing beyond the download.

TV Remote holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 2.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 20 and 26 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Smart Projector Control's written reviews are positive against 33% of TV Remote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Smart Projector Control ships an update every 5 months, TV Remote weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
