Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: addy.io at every 3 weeks against Masked Email Manager's every 5 months. addy.io also leads on ratings volume (70 vs 10). Masked Email Manager's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 81%) and rating (4.9 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
