Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Qatom Authenticator at none against Athleta's shown. Qatom Authenticator also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Athleta's advantage is ratings volume (228K vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
