ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Panasonic Stereo Remote 2012 holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Universal TV Remote Control ™ has 3.1K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Panasonic Stereo Remote 2012's written reviews are positive against 55% of Universal TV Remote Control ™'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Panasonic Stereo Remote 2012 ships an update every 7 months, Universal TV Remote Control ™ every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
