Yandex ID is the updated app that replaces Yandex Key. It makes sign-in to Yandex services faster and easier. There are no passwords to remember or SMS messages to wait for — the app instantly delivers a one-time code or image. With Yandex ID, you can also manage all your account information, as it keeps all your data and settings in one place. INSTANT LOGIN WITHOUT PASSWORDS Sign in by entering a code or tapping an image — it takes seconds. No passwords, no SMS messages, no push notifications. Your digital key is securely linked to your account and can only be used by you. 2FA AUTHENTICATOR Yandex ID works as a secure authenticator with two-factor authentication (2FA) and one-time password (OTP) support. Use it to logging for services that rely on one-time passwords. If you have used Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator before, you will find this app familiar. Code generation follows international OTP/TOTP standards. MANAGE ACCOUNTS IN ONE APP The new app also works as a password and access manager for all your Yandex accounts. Manage your data, documents, devices, payments and permissions all in one place. You can share subscriptions, control purchases, set spending limits and create a secure child account with content filtering. BACKUP & RECOVERY Create a secure cloud backup and restore it using your phone number when needed. You can also save a local backup file to safely transfer 2FA accounts. Try Yandex ID, a single app combining a 2FA TOTP authenticator, password management and access to your Yandex ID account.

Личный кабинет позволяет, не тратя лишнего времени, просто и безопасно передать показания приборов учета, без комиссии оплатить услуги водоснабжения и водоотведения с помощью банковской карты и воспользоваться другими полезными функциями и справочной информацией. Процесс регистрации занимает минимум времени: достаточно знать номер лицевого счета и сумму последней оплаты, которые абонент найдет в квитанции. В Личном кабинете абонент получает подробную информацию о состоянии своего лицевого счета, текущем балансе, историю платежей и переданных показаний. Удобная функция Личного кабинета - возможность привязать к нему несколько лицевых счетов. Если у пользователя есть необходимость передавать показания или оплачивать услуги по двум или более лицевым счетам, не нужно регистрировать для каждого счета отдельный Личный кабинет. Для привязки дополнительного лицевого счета в «Личном кабинете» надо в соответствующие графы вписать номер счета, а также последнюю (или предпоследнюю) оплаченную по нему сумму, и подтвердить нажатием кнопки «Подключить». Переключаться между лицевыми счетами можно в верхней части личного кабинета слева от кнопки «Выход», там же при необходимости можно отвязать лицевой счет от аккаунта. Подключение дополнительного лицевого счета не требует дополнительной авторизации в системе. Эта функция дает возможность из одного «Личного кабинета» управлять несколькими лицевыми счетами, передавать показания и платить за несколько объектов недвижимости, например, жилой дом, квартиру и дачу. Кроме того, пользователь может работать не только со своим счетом (или счетами), но и помочь в расчетах за воду другим абонентам, скажем, своим родственникам преклонных лет, которые «не дружат» с Интернетом.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Yandex ID at 4.6 against Ростовводоканал's 2.5. Yandex ID also leads on ratings volume (327 vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Ростовводоканал's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
