They are very often free, and some have a lot of great features. I am not very familiar with any of them, but I have used both Logos and Word Search Bible. I would have to place Logos first, because I can't see any Bible app surpassing it--it's that good. Word Search Bible is good. I use WordSearch Bible largely because I'm in a library-building mode right now, and for some reason Word Search Bible's prices (especially when on sale) are a little bit better.

I used the term "smartphone" apps. True, you can use the apps on smartphones, but using one for that has to have been one of Torquemada's ideas. A tablet would give you a much better experience.

Amazon and several other vendors offer the apps: however, the word that I get is that Google Play is more rigorous about making sure that the apps have no malware, etc. in them.
I have Verbum which is the Catholic version of the Logos app (it's basically the same app except the included freebies are Catholic public domain books) and I agree that the app is great on a tablet and somewhat painful on on a smaller screen.

It's become particularly useful now that I've spent a few years gathering the monthly freebies and having the occasional splurge on particularly good sales as the advantage of having interlinked books that can be mass searched has started to really kick in.
