Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TRICOMMMAND at none against NAVADMIN Viewer's 1. TRICOMMMAND also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). NAVADMIN Viewer's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 4). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
