Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: AGTV at 5.0 against SES Apologetics App's 4.2. AGTV also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 6) and review sentiment (99% vs 80%). SES Apologetics App's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AGTV sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. SES Apologetics App asks for nothing beyond the download.
AGTV holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AGTV has 1.1K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
