Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Saturn Remote at 5.0 against Remote App's 3.4. Saturn Remote also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 5 weeks). Remote App's advantage is ratings volume (19 vs 1) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
