KEY FEATURES • One-Time Verification Codes Generate time-based (TOTP) and counter-based (HOTP) codes for compatible websites and services.

Keep your backup file and password safe. • Optional iCloud Sync Sync accounts across your devices. Your accounts are encrypted before being stored in your private iCloud database. • Home Screen Widget View authentication codes from your Home Screen. • Light & Dark Appearance Choose a light theme, a dark theme, or follow your device settings. HOW IT WORKS 1. Enable authenticator-based two-factor authentication on a supported website or service. 2. Add the account to Auth Code using its QR code or setup key. 3.

Verdict

ASCEND GPS's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 16.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
