The clearest difference is rating: Extron Control at 4.5 against Clicker's 3.7. Extron Control also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (75% vs 42%). Clicker's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (98 vs 11). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
