# Seekers Notes vs Search & Find

The clearest difference is update cadence: Seekers Notes at weekly against Search & Find's every 3 months. Seekers Notes also leads on ratings volume (95K vs 839) and chart position (#26 vs unranked). Search & Find's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Seekers Notes sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Search & Find sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Search & Find holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Seekers Notes has 95K ratings behind it against 839, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Seekers Notes's written reviews are positive against 51% of Search & Find's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Seekers Notes ships an update weekly, Search & Find every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
