Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Daily Scripture at free against ACTS XXIX's ad-supported. Daily Scripture also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). ACTS XXIX's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (274 vs 42). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
