# Bible Touch vs NWTS

The clearest difference is ads: NWTS at none against Bible Touch's shown. Bible Touch's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bible Touch sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and NWTS sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bible Touch ships an update every 2 days, NWTS monthly. Both last shipped on October 8, 2026.
