# Bible vs Ebooks Reader

The clearest difference is rating: Bible at 4.8 against Ebooks Reader's 4.1. Bible also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 7 months). Ebooks Reader's advantage is iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bible sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month and Ebooks Reader sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bible holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bible has 3.4K ratings behind it against 49, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 90% of Bible's written reviews are positive against 75% of Ebooks Reader's.

Bible ships an update every 10 days, Ebooks Reader every 7 months. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
