# FullControl vs Remouse

The clearest difference is rating: FullControl at 4.5 against Remouse's 3.0. FullControl also leads on ratings volume (220 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). Remouse's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FullControl sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Remouse asks for nothing beyond the download.

FullControl holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FullControl has 220 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

FullControl ships an update every 4 weeks, Remouse every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
