Verdict
The clearest difference is price: JoeCoRemote at Free against Timecode Gen's $4.99. JoeCoRemote also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). Timecode Gen's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 13 months) and device support (4 vs 1). On ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
