Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Mirror ◎ at 4.6 against Room Heat's 1.8. Mirror ◎ also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (195K vs 9). Room Heat's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
