# Bible Study vs Scripture Cards

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Bible Study against 5.0 for Scripture Cards. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bible Study has 31K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Bible Study ships an update every 2 weeks, Scripture Cards daily. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
