Read full description

The app contains the text and audio of the Bible in the Hutterite language (Hutterisch). At this time only the NT is available and corrections to the audio will be added in future updates. “Hutterisch” is a minority language spoken by Hutterites in the prairie states of Canada and the US. The Hutterites share a common history with other anabaptist groups, such as the Mennonites and the Amish. They fled to America due to severe and gruesome persecution during and after the reformation, which lead to the death of many. Today the Hutterites live communally in over 500 colonies. They practice shared ownership of goods and generally operate large farming operations, often combined with some kind of manufacturing business. For more info on this group please visit www.hutterite.org

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hutterite Bible App at none against BookPlayer's 15. Hutterite Bible App also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 83%) and iOS requirement (9.3 vs 18.0). BookPlayer's advantage is ratings volume (20K vs 15) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

BookPlayer holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BookPlayer has 20K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of BookPlayer's written reviews are positive against 100% of Hutterite Bible App's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

BookPlayer ships an update every 10 days, Hutterite Bible App fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
