Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Authenticator at free with in-app purchases against BlazeAuth's subscription. Authenticator also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). BlazeAuth's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (2.1K vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
