Your TV's remote is missing. This replaces it. Zapp controls Samsung, LG, Roku, Google TV and Fire TV over your Wi-Fi. Every button works for free — the whole remote, on every TV you own, with no limit on how many you add. It becomes your TV's remote, not a generic grid. Zapp reads the brand and model and loads a matching layout: Samsung's colour keys, LG's Magic Remote, Roku's classic set. Only buttons your television can actually use are drawn, so nothing on screen is a dead button. Big buttons mode turns the remote into a handful of very large keys — power, volume, channel and navigation — for anyone who finds a dense remote hard to hit. Pro is one payment of $9.99. Not a subscription, not a trial, not a weekly charge. It adds four things: a keyboard for TV search boxes, one-tap shortcuts to the apps actually installed on your TV, the LG Magic Remote pointer, and waking a TV that's in standby. No account. No ads. No data collected. A few megabytes. Zapp is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Samsung, LG, Roku, Google, or Amazon. All product names, logos and brands are the property of their respective owners and are used only to identify the televisions Zapp can control.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Egg Timer at none against Zapp's 1. Egg Timer also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). Zapp's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
