ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Unified Remote holds the better App Store score, 3.8 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Unified Remote has 290 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Unified Remote's written reviews are positive against 80% of PPT Remote Control's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Unified Remote ships an update every 2 weeks, PPT Remote Control every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
