# SMART vs Bible

The clearest difference is rating: SMART at 4.7 against Bible's 2.5. SMART also leads on ratings volume (9 vs 2). Bible's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SMART sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Bible asks for nothing beyond the download.

SMART holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 9 and 2 respectively.

SMART ships an update fortnightly, Bible every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
