Annikken Andee vs CCA Remote
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Annikken Andee
This utility app enables Arduino users to connect their micro:bit or Arduino 101 to iOS devices. It transforms iPhones, iPads, and Apple Watches into touchscreens for microcontrollers, allowing easy creation of interfaces and use of phone functions without coding.
- Connect to micro:bit and Arduino 101
- Use iPhone/iPad as touchscreen
- Control Arduino with Apple Watch
- Access phone functions (GPS, Camera)
- No iOS coding required
- Extend Arduino invention control

Annikken Andee allows Arduino users to connect to the micro:bit, Arduino 101 as well as the Annikken Andee Bluetooth add-on shield for the popular Arduino platform. You can now easily create touch interfaces, display data and uses phone functions (GPS, Gyro, Camera etc) without writing any iOS code. Annikken Andee makes the life of an Arduino programmer much easier by transforming their iPhone, iTouch and iPad into a "Touchscreen" for the Arduino Microcontroller. Makers/Tinkerers/Hackers can quickly extend the control of their Arduino inventions to their iOS devices and build bigger and better projects! You can now use your Apple Watch to control your Arduino! Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Control your microcontroller directly from your smartphone – no hardwiring, no complicated software. With CCA Remote, you can build a custom dashboard with buttons, sliders, joysticks, and displays in minutes. Developed at HTL Anichstraße – for everyone who wants to get more out of their DIY projects. WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH IT - Easily build your own custom control interfaces via drag-and-drop - Connect to the controller via Bluetooth (BLE) or Wi-Fi - Automatically generate Arduino code – no manual programming required - Save, lock, and share profiles for different projects - View live readings as a bar, gauge, chart, or LED status - Remote profiles can be saved directly on the controller and are automatically transferred to the app upon connection - Multilingual user interface (German, English) - Element dependencies: Control elements can be enabled/disabled depending on other elements - System backup and restore of the entire app configuration CONTROL AND DISPLAY ELEMENTS - Control: Button, Slider, Switch, Joystick, Text Input, Color Picker, Selector Switch - Display: Display, Label, Bar, Gauge, Chart, Status LED, Icon - All elements fully scalable and customizable. SUPPORTED HARDWARE - ESP32 – Native BLE & Wi-Fi - ESP8266 – Wi-Fi - Arduino Uno / Nano – BLE via HM-10 module - Raspberry Pi Pico 2W and ESP32 – BLE & Wi-Fi (MicroPython) LIBRARY & GETTING STARTED The free CCARemote library is available on GitHub for Arduino and MicroPython. The integrated code generator automatically creates the complete sketch – including setup(), loop(), and all variable declarations. ORIGIN Originally developed as part of a diploma thesis by L. Eder and E. Duyar at HTL Anichstraße Innsbruck. This current version was further developed and published by A. Eckhart with the permission of the original authors.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: CCA Remote at every 3 weeks against Annikken Andee's every 2 months. Annikken Andee's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
