ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Sparrow Daily Devotional holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: d365 Daily Devotionals has 3.9K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of d365 Daily Devotionals's written reviews are positive against 50% of Sparrow Daily Devotional's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
