Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FIS Authenticator at none against Authenticator App†'s 3. FIS Authenticator also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). Authenticator App†'s advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Authenticator App† holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Authenticator App† has 2.5K ratings behind it against 236, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of FIS Authenticator's written reviews are positive against 20% of Authenticator App†'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

FIS Authenticator ships an update every 2 months, Authenticator App† fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
