Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: KeepMeClose at 5.0 against RMControl's 2.0. KeepMeClose also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks). RMControl's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (74 vs 2). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
