Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Pi at 1.3K against Tautulli Remote's 45. Pi also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). Tautulli Remote's advantage is iOS requirement (15.5 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
