Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Torah Class at none against MyStudyDen's 3. Torah Class also leads on ratings volume (108 vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). MyStudyDen's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 71%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MyStudyDen holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Torah Class has 108 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 71% of Torah Class's written reviews are positive against 100% of MyStudyDen's.
