# VPN Pro vs Universal TV Remote

The clearest difference is rating: VPN Pro at 4.6 against Universal TV Remote's 4.0. VPN Pro also leads on review sentiment (83% vs 50%) and ratings volume (875 vs 68). Universal TV Remote's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VPN Pro sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Universal TV Remote sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

VPN Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VPN Pro has 875 ratings behind it against 68, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 83% of VPN Pro's written reviews are positive against 50% of Universal TV Remote's.

VPN Pro ships an update every 5 days, Universal TV Remote every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
