Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: iBible at 4.7 against BibleDuo's 3.7. iBible also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ratings volume (201 vs 6). BibleDuo's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
