Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Seekers Notes at 95K against Connected Hearts 3's 156. Seekers Notes also leads on review sentiment (59% vs 38%) and chart position (#33 vs unranked). Connected Hearts 3's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, update cadence, 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 Connected Hearts 3 sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Connected Hearts 3 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 156, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Seekers Notes's written reviews are positive against 38% of Connected Hearts 3'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, Connected Hearts 3 fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
