# LDS Database vs Book of Mormon－The Scriptures

The clearest difference is rating: LDS Database at 4.8 against Book of Mormon－The Scriptures's 3.0. LDS Database also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 6) and ratings volume (12 vs 2). Book of Mormon－The Scriptures's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 83%). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Book of Mormon－The Scriptures sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. LDS Database asks for nothing beyond the download.

LDS Database holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LDS Database has 12 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of LDS Database's written reviews are positive against 100% of Book of Mormon－The Scriptures's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
