Remote Control for Android TV holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Remote Control for Android TV has 2.2K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Remox's written reviews are positive against 35% of Remote Control for Android TV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
