Verdict
The clearest difference is price: TV Remote at Free against Moon Codex's $4.99. TV Remote also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.6). Moon Codex's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
