Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Logic Remote at Free against FL Studio Mobile's $14.99. Logic Remote also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.8) and in-app purchases (none vs 11). FL Studio Mobile's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 months) and review sentiment (57% vs 44%). On ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Logic Remote holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Logic Remote has 7K ratings behind it against 577, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of FL Studio Mobile's written reviews are positive against 44% of Logic Remote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

FL Studio Mobile ships an update every 9 days, Logic Remote every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
