Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FishPond at none against Iron Commando Pro's 2. FishPond also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (70% vs 53%). Iron Commando Pro's advantage is rating (3.9 vs 3.5) and ratings volume (74 vs 17). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
