Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Authenticator at free with in-app purchases against RemoteX's subscription. Authenticator also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). RemoteX's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (115 vs 25). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
