Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Seekers Notes at weekly against Hidden Objects's every 3 months. Seekers Notes also leads on ratings volume (95K vs 2K) and chart position (#28 vs unranked). Hidden Objects's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Seekers Notes sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Hidden Objects sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hidden Objects holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Seekers Notes has 95K ratings behind it against 2K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Seekers Notes's written reviews are positive against 53% of Hidden Objects's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Seekers Notes ships an update weekly, Hidden Objects every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and September 7, 2026 respectively.
