Zapper turns your iPhone into a clean, modern remote for compatible smart TVs on your local network. Download free, try 30 remote actions, then go unlimited with a Zapper Pro subscription or lifetime purchase. Find your TV automatically or enter its IP address manually, approve pairing on the TV, and get quick access to the controls you use most: power, navigation, volume, channel up/down, number pad, playback, Home, Back, Menu, Source, Settings, Search, and keyboard text input. When a compatible TV reports launchable installed apps, Zapper can show matching streaming shortcuts; Home opens the TV's home screen. WHY PEOPLE USE ZAPPER • Fast access to the controls you actually need • Verified streaming shortcuts when a compatible TV confirms an installed app • Automatic discovery for compatible TVs on the same Wi-Fi • Manual IP entry when discovery is blocked by your router or network setup • Saved pairing token for easier reconnects • Wake support for previously paired TVs when Wake-on-LAN is available • On-device Demo Mode so you can explore the app without a live TV • Free download with 30 remote actions before unlock • Zapper Pro: weekly or annual subscription (annual includes a 3-day free trial), or a lifetime purchase • No account, cloud relay for TV control, or in-app ads GOOD TO KNOW • Real TV control requires a compatible Samsung TV, local network access, and the TV and iPhone on the same network • After 30 free remote actions, continued control requires Zapper Pro • Demo Mode lets you explore the app interface; it does not control a real TV • Installed-app reporting, streaming shortcuts, and direct-launch support vary by TV model • Zapper is an independent app and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. ZAPPER PRO SUBSCRIPTIONS Zapper Pro is available as a weekly or annual auto-renewing subscription, or as a one-time lifetime purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription. Lifetime purchases made before subscriptions were introduced keep full access.

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: S at 3 against Zapper's 1. S also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
