He Would Love First is a movement answering the question WWJD - "What Would Jesus Do?". Our mission to use the famous question "What Would Jesus Do?" to start a conversation about the gospel and point people back to the cross! The bible says that "while we were still sinner Christ died for us"! People are so used to seeing WWJD on these classic bracelets! So when they see HWLF they are sure to ask what it stands for! This gives you an opportunity to tell them the Good News of what Jesus did; He loved us first while we were yet sinners to reconcile us back to the Father! His love brings conviction, transformation and reconciliation! Joint us as we tell the world about this transforming Love!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Daily Devo at none against He Would Love First's shown. Daily Devo also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). He Would Love First's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 200). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

He Would Love First holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: He Would Love First has 1.1K ratings behind it against 200, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Daily Devo's written reviews are positive against 81% of He Would Love First's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Daily Devo ships an update every 2 weeks, He Would Love First every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
