I have only downloaded one of these so far, DAW Control.  It's not fully supported for Audition so a lot of the buttons don't do anything.  I still love it, but I want one that fully functions with Audition.  The companies don't seem to be very upfront about what their app supports.  Has anyone else found an app that fully works with Audition that you like?

    This answers the 'that you like' bit...

     

    I looked into this ages ago, tried a couple, and gave up. The reason for this is that they were all downright distracting, because you had to shift your focus from Audition itself and concentrate on where you were putting your fingers on the app, and then shift it back again. On that basis, I've found all apps to be useless from the POV of controlling Audition, simply because of the additional workload you don't need. If you want to control it remotely, then any of the compatible tactile controllers with real hardware are a far better bet.

    I couldn't agree more.  I'm' very much a keyboard person, but I'm always on the lookout for anything that could make my job easier.  I'm sure that there's really nothing to be gained for me, but this particular adventure seems to be more about how different things could be, whether I ever use any of them or not.
