Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Carmen Remote at 100% against Lift Tech's 38%. Carmen Remote also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.4) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 10 months). Lift Tech's advantage is ratings volume (27 vs 1) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
