# HelloBible vs Bybel

The clearest difference is ratings volume: HelloBible at 626 against Bybel's 22. Bybel's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HelloBible sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Bybel sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bybel holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HelloBible has 626 ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 95% of HelloBible's written reviews are positive against 100% of Bybel's.

HelloBible ships an update weekly, Bybel every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 4, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
