Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Google Cloud at 3.3 against IDX Password Manager's 2.0. Google Cloud also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (107 vs 1). IDX Password Manager's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
