Brobuddy and Drone Command both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Drone Command's written reviews are positive against 14% of Brobuddy's. Brobuddy's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 110) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
