Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: TV Remote Control at none against ButterPass's shown. TV Remote Control also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). ButterPass's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
