Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Desktop PC Browser at 4.4 against UTM Remote Virtual Machines's 3.7. Desktop PC Browser also leads on ratings volume (337 vs 51) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 14.0). UTM Remote Virtual Machines's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 7) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Desktop PC Browser sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. UTM Remote Virtual Machines asks for nothing beyond the download.
Desktop PC Browser holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Desktop PC Browser has 337 ratings behind it against 51, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 24% of Desktop PC Browser's written reviews are positive against 38% of UTM Remote Virtual Machines's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Desktop PC Browser ships an update every 2 months, UTM Remote Virtual Machines every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
