Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Droid Depot at 3.6 against RoboRemote's 2.8. Droid Depot also leads on review sentiment (56% vs 21%) and ratings volume (639 vs 91). RoboRemote's advantage is update cadence (every 5 months vs every 31 months) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 14.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
