Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Multiply at none against The FireBible's 1. Multiply also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.9 vs 4.5). The FireBible's advantage is review sentiment (79% vs 50%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 16 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. The FireBible sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per month. Multiply asks for nothing beyond the download.
Multiply holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 16 and 57 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Multiply's written reviews are positive against 79% of The FireBible's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Multiply ships an update every 16 months, The FireBible every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
