Clementine Remote vs Polaris
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Clementine Remote

Control the music player "Clementine" - access your playlists, browse the library, download files, change the volume via hardware buttons, read the lyrics while listening to your favourite song, enjoy the cover art and more. If you receive a call or want to make one, you don't have pause the current track, Clementine Remote lowers the volume for you. It also has many more features, for example exchange of music and playlists with a computer.
