Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: 7 at 4.6 against pomera Link's 3.7. 7 also leads on ratings volume (257 vs 3) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months). pomera Link's advantage is review sentiment (46% vs 35%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
7 holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 7 has 257 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of pomera Link's written reviews are positive against 35% of 7's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
pomera Link ships an update every 7 months, 7 every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on August 31, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
