# Pi vs Tautulli Remote

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.

Both are free to download. Pi sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Tautulli Remote sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pi holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pi has 1.3K ratings behind it against 45, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 88% of Pi's written reviews are positive against 81% of Tautulli Remote's.

Pi ships an update every 2 weeks, Tautulli Remote monthly. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
