# Seekers Notes vs Hidden Objects

The clearest difference is ads: Hidden Objects at none against Seekers Notes's shown. Hidden Objects also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Seekers Notes's advantage is ratings volume (95K vs 64) and update cadence (weekly vs monthly). On price, review sentiment, 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 Hidden Objects sells 14 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Hidden Objects holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Seekers Notes has 95K ratings behind it against 64, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 60% and 60% positive.

Seekers Notes ships an update weekly, Hidden Objects monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
