A Bible study written on your iPhone, from the King James text, in seconds. Pick a passage. Pick a kind of study. Read it as it's written, right on your device. There's no account to make, no API key to find, and nothing is sent anywhere. THREE KINDS OF STUDY • Understand it: what the passage says, verse by verse, and the world it was written in. • Live it: a reflection, a way to live it this week, and words to start praying. • Teach it: a main point, an outline and discussion questions for a class or group. THE SCRIPTURE IS THE APP'S, NOT THE AI'S Every verse you see is printed from the King James Version inside the app, never typed out by the AI. The study writes about the passage. It doesn't recite it from memory. When Ask quotes a verse, it looks the verse up first. If a quotation isn't the real KJV wording, the app says so under the answer. ASK Ask about a passage, a person or a question: "What does the Bible say about worry?" or "Who was Melchizedek?" Every reference in the answer opens the passage itself. YOUR OWN NOTES AND PDFS Bring in lesson notes, a handout, a PDF or scanned pages. Ask can answer from them ("What did I write about Naomi's grief?") and tells you which source it used. With the unlock, you can study them a part at a time, the same way you study scripture. THE WHOLE BIBLE, READ YOUR WAY The complete King James Bible. Tap verses to study them, ask about them, note them or copy them. Choose your text size, a light or dark page, and a study lens (Baptist, Reformed, Wesleyan, Pentecostal, Lutheran, Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican or Dispensational) or none, so disputed points are explained from your tradition or laid out fairly. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Studies and answers are written by Apple Intelligence on your device. What you read, ask and write stays on your device. No account, no tracking, no ads. FREE, WITH ONE OPTIONAL UNLOCK Free: the whole Bible, notes, Ask, bringing in your own sources, and 3 studies a week. Unlock ($14.99, once, no subscription): unlimited studies, Teach it, studies of your own notes and PDFs, and sharing any study as a handout. Already subscribed to Bible-StudyGuide? You're unlocked for life. Thank you. You can cancel your subscription. REQUIREMENTS Writing studies and answers needs Apple Intelligence turned on: iPhone 15 Pro or later, an iPad with A17 Pro or M1 or later, or a Mac with M1 or later. On other devices you can still read, take notes and keep studies.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BibleOne at none against Bible's 1. BibleOne also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
