Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: AnchorPointLife at none against Bible Study Tools's shown. AnchorPointLife also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). Bible Study Tools's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 38 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
