# Bible vs Catechized

The clearest difference is chart position: Bible at #190 against Catechized's unranked. Bible also leads on device support (5 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bible sells 15 one-off in-app purchases and Catechized sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
