Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Omniwell at none against Universal TV Remote®'s shown. Omniwell also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months). Universal TV Remote®'s advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Universal TV Remote® sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Omniwell sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Omniwell holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Universal TV Remote® has 1.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Universal TV Remote® ships an update every 7 months, Omniwell fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
