RemoteXY is a platform for creating and using graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for microcontroller devices. If you want to connect to a device, install the app and follow the instructions from the device developer. If you are a developer, use the RemoteXY platform to its full potential. Create custom user graphical interface (GUI) using the editor located at https://remotexy.com The editor will automatically create a source code template for the Arduino IDE. The source code contains support for the selected communication method for the selected controller and includes a fully functional graphical interface. Integrate your task with the graphical interface, it's very easy following the detailed documentation and examples. Upload the source code to the board. Then use this application to connect to your board and control it using your graphical interface. Develop graphical control interfaces for various devices, both for yourself and for your clients. Supported connection methods: - Internet anywhere over Cloud Server; - WiFi client and access point; - Bluetooth; - Ethernet by IP or URL; - USB OTG; Supported boards: - Arduino UNO, MEGA, Leonardo, Pro Mini, Nano, MICRO and compatible AVR boards; - ESP8266 boards ; - ESP32 boards; - STM32F1 boards; - nRF51822 boards.

BLE tools with terminal

A practical BluetoothLE scanning tool that can connect to BLE Bluetooth devices to obtain information, supports terminal mode, and can set function keys. It is a very convenient tool for developers of Arduino or Raspberry pie. Support the reminder function of Bluetooth device [online]. When the stored Bluetooth device is scanned, a reminder will appear. The distance can be judged by the value of rssi. If there is a Bluetooth headset forgotten where to put it, you can use this function to find . There is also an interesting application method for this function. For example, put the Bluetooth headset in the suitcase when going abroad. When the suitcase turntable sends the luggage out, the mobile phone will remind the user that the luggage is here!

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BLE tools with terminal at none against RemoteXY's 5. RemoteXY's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 23 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
