Keepad turns your iPhone or iPad into a wireless keyboard, touchpad, macropad, and MIDI controller for your computer. Create custom layouts with buttons for shortcuts, macros, mouse actions, MIDI notes, MIDI CC controls, and more. Nearly every button can be customized, including its label, color, function, modifiers, and behavior. Use layers to build different control surfaces for different apps, workflows, or machines. With the optional Beecon desktop app, Keepad can automatically switch layers based on the active app on your computer. Keepad requires a compatible custom Bluetooth dongle, available separately with a one-time purchase.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Keepad at monthly against RR's every 14 months. RR's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.6). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
