Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Holyword at none against ScriptureDaily's shown. Holyword also leads on ratings volume (8 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.2). ScriptureDaily's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
