Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SafeAFK at 5.0 against XpRemotePanel's 3.7. SafeAFK also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). XpRemotePanel's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (7 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
