Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: SmartPoint Connect at free against myTouchSmart Remote Control's paid. SmartPoint Connect also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (3.9K vs 136). myTouchSmart Remote Control's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 8 months) and review sentiment (76% vs 50%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
SmartPoint Connect holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SmartPoint Connect has 3.9K ratings behind it against 136, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of myTouchSmart Remote Control's written reviews are positive against 50% of SmartPoint Connect's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
myTouchSmart Remote Control ships an update monthly, SmartPoint Connect every 8 months. Both last shipped on October 7, 2026.
