# GoldHunter3D vs Remote Control TV

The clearest difference is rating: Remote Control TV at 4.4 against GoldHunter3D's 3.4. Remote Control TV also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (103 vs 18). GoldHunter3D's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and review sentiment (33% vs 25%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Remote Control TV sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. GoldHunter3D asks for nothing beyond the download.

Remote Control TV holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Remote Control TV has 103 ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of GoldHunter3D's written reviews are positive against 25% of Remote Control TV's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

GoldHunter3D ships an update every 5 months, Remote Control TV every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
