Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Izy at 5.0 against Finnish Authenticator's 1.4. Izy also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 6 months). Finnish Authenticator's advantage is ratings volume (14 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
