Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: B/air at none against Universal TV Remote Control's 5. B/air also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.3 vs 15.0). Universal TV Remote Control's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
