Verdict
The clearest difference is price: RaspController at Free against Holdboard's $0.99. RaspController also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (56 vs 1). Holdboard's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.

RaspController is free to download; Holdboard costs $0.99 up front. RaspController sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 3 months. Holdboard asks for nothing beyond the download.
RaspController holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RaspController has 56 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of RaspController's written reviews are positive against 100% of Holdboard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
RaspController ships an update monthly, Holdboard weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
