Lily vs She Reads Truth: Two Different Ways to Walk With God

Honest disclosure: this comparison is written by the small team behind Lily. We name what the other app does well, and every factual claim here is checkable on the public App Store. We would rather you pick the right app for you than pretend the others do not exist.

Let us start with respect: She Reads Truth helped build the modern women's Bible study movement. Their printed studies are beautiful and their community is real. If you love SRT, nothing here says you are wrong.

The honest picture

She Reads Truth is a study product: structured reading plans through whole books of the Bible, tied to printed materials, with depth that rewards the time you give it. Lily is a daily companion: three minutes, matched to the season of life you are actually in, with a place to bring the 2am question and a record of answered prayer.

There is also a practical difference that their own reviewers talk about openly on the App Store: the SRT app currently averages around 3.2 stars, with many longtime users describing crashes and an app that has not been updated since 2024. Many of those reviews read like grief, because the women writing them love the content and want the app to work.

Side by side

Can you love both?

Honestly, yes. Some women will do an SRT study with their Bible on Saturday and read Lily with coffee on the ordinary mornings. If what you need right now is depth and community, buy an SRT study. If what you need is a faithful daily rhythm that works every time you open it and knows what season you are in, that is exactly what Lily is for.
