# Bible App vs Bible ProStudy

The clearest difference is price: Bible App at Free against Bible ProStudy's $49.99. Bible App also leads on review sentiment (93% vs 67%) and ratings volume (322K vs 11). Bible ProStudy's advantage is iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Bible App is free to download; Bible ProStudy costs $49.99 up front. Bible App sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Bible ProStudy sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.49 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bible App holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bible App has 322K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 93% of Bible App's written reviews are positive against 67% of Bible ProStudy's.

Bible App ships an update fortnightly, Bible ProStudy monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and August 25, 2026 respectively.
