Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: FiiO Control at 5.0 against Go Control's 2.5. FiiO Control also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). Go Control's advantage is ratings volume (26 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

FiiO Control holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Go Control has 26 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 13% of FiiO Control's written reviews are positive against 21% of Go Control's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

FiiO Control ships an update fortnightly, Go Control every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
