Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: ProxRemote at 100% against Zima Client's 62%. Zima Client's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and rating (4.9 vs 4.5). On price, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. ProxRemote sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Zima Client asks for nothing beyond the download.
Zima Client holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zima Client has 267 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of Zima Client's written reviews are positive against 100% of ProxRemote's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Zima Client ships an update fortnightly, ProxRemote monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and November 13, 2026 respectively.
