Instant, secure logins to EAMS-A using your personal mobile device. Protect your Army EAMS-A account by adding second factor authentication with Army MobileConnect. After logging in to EAMS-A as you normally would, MobileConnect will send a notification to your device, asking you to approve the login, or will generate a one-time passcode to use instead. MobileConnect will now allow users to login without a username and password once registered. This simplifies desktop and mobile access to hundreds of Army sites backed by EAMS-A. You may still use MobileConnectas a second factor for username and password logins if needed. You may use automatic push notifications or TOTP for validating your second factor with MobileConnect. Note: This app requires a US Army EAMS-A account and registration for the MobileConnectservice. Simple instructions are provided in the app.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: TrueAuth at fortnightly against Army MobileConnect's every 2 months. Army MobileConnect's advantage is review sentiment (10% vs 0%) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
