# Seekers Notes vs Scavenger Hunt

The clearest difference is rating: Seekers Notes at 4.3 against Scavenger Hunt's 3.6. Seekers Notes also leads on ratings volume (95K vs 60) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). Scavenger Hunt's advantage is review sentiment (71% vs 60%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). 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 Scavenger Hunt sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Seekers Notes holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Seekers Notes has 95K ratings behind it against 60, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Seekers Notes's written reviews are positive against 71% of Scavenger Hunt's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Seekers Notes ships an update weekly, Scavenger Hunt every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and July 17, 2026 respectively.
