Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
AV Setup Guide holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AV Setup Guide has 254 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of AV Setup Guide's written reviews are positive against 40% of JVC Remote S's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
