# Seven vs The Complex

The clearest difference is ads: The Complex at none against Seven's shown. Seven's advantage is review sentiment (71% vs 46%) and ratings volume (2.8K vs 187). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Seven sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and The Complex sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Seven against 4.4 for The Complex. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Seven has 2.8K ratings behind it against 187, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 71% of Seven's written reviews are positive against 46% of The Complex's.

Seven ships an update every 2 months, The Complex every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
