Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: GuRobot at none against Classic TV Remote Control's shown. GuRobot also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Classic TV Remote Control's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
