# Bread vs Bible Roots

The clearest difference is monetization model: Bible Roots at free against Bread's free with in-app purchases. Bible Roots also leads on ratings volume (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bread sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Bible Roots sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Bread against 5.0 for Bible Roots. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 4 respectively.
