Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Remote at none against RaspController's shown. Remote also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). RaspController's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (57 vs 6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Remote sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 3 months and RaspController sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Remote holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RaspController has 57 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Remote's written reviews are positive against 79% of RaspController's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Remote ships an update every 3 months, RaspController every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
