    A Bible app will be just that- the Bible. I prefer the YouVersion app. You can bookmark, highlight, switch between versions (and even languages), etc.

    A Bible study is a study of the Bible- usually centered around a certain book, or concept, etc. Think of it as application of the Bible, and helping you to understand the Bible in context.

    All you need is one, good Bible with study notes included. I recommend the New Living Translation Study Bible published by Tyndale House, Illinois.

    The notes fill you in on social background, history, dates, time-lines, links to other related parts in the Bible elsewhere, dictionary, concordance, maps... You can go to their website to download stuff, but the best plan is to buy a copy in a Bible bookshop then you get a free access with password to your own Bible study aids on-line. Trying to do everything on-line will ruin your eyes. You really need a Bible to hand that you can open up, switch to related bits, put down when you get tired and resume looking the next day. It's too massive an undertaking to just flit from web-page to web-page.
