Verdict
The clearest difference is price: SpotElectric at Free against Dreambox Controller's $0.99. SpotElectric also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Dreambox Controller's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
