Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: iSpeedScan at 100% against TV Remote's 39%. iSpeedScan also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5). TV Remote's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 4 weeks) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 17). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
