# Tigrinya Bible vs Digital Tigrigna

The clearest difference is rating: Tigrinya Bible at 4.7 against Digital Tigrigna's 3.3. Tigrinya Bible also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 50%) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). Digital Tigrigna's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tigrinya Bible sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Digital Tigrigna sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $12.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tigrinya Bible holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tigrinya Bible has 346 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 89% of Tigrinya Bible's written reviews are positive against 50% of Digital Tigrigna's.

Tigrinya Bible ships an update every 6 months, Digital Tigrigna every 9 months. Both last shipped on October 15, 2026.
