Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Bible Dictionary and Glossary at 4.8 against The Practice Co Devotionals's 4.3. Bible Dictionary and Glossary also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ratings volume (5.1K vs 712). The Practice Co Devotionals's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 18 months). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. The Practice Co Devotionals sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Bible Dictionary and Glossary asks for nothing beyond the download.
Bible Dictionary and Glossary holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bible Dictionary and Glossary has 5.1K ratings behind it against 712, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Bible Dictionary and Glossary's written reviews are positive against 99% of The Practice Co Devotionals's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Bible Dictionary and Glossary ships an update every 18 months, The Practice Co Devotionals every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 28, 2026 and October 20, 2026 respectively.
