# RemoteX vs Bluetooth Device

The clearest difference is monetization model: Bluetooth Device at free with in-app purchases against RemoteX's subscription. Bluetooth Device also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 weeks) and rating (4.4 vs 4.2). RemoteX's advantage is review sentiment (25% vs 0%) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RemoteX sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Bluetooth Device sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bluetooth Device holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 116 and 95 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of RemoteX's written reviews are positive against 0% of Bluetooth Device's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

RemoteX ships an update every 6 weeks, Bluetooth Device every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
