# TheYeshiva vs Kol Torah

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TheYeshiva at none against Kol Torah's 10. TheYeshiva also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.6). Kol Torah's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Kol Torah sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.29 per month. TheYeshiva asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for TheYeshiva against 5.0 for Kol Torah. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 3 respectively.

TheYeshiva ships an update every 6 weeks, Kol Torah fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
