In most cases these words can be used interchangeably, but “appear to” is slightly more formal. Also, in general, “seems to” is less direct, while “appear to” is more direct.
Ex 1: He appears to be sick.
Ex2: He seems to be sick.
In this context, “appears to” is used to describe the visual signs with which you concluded that he is sick. The second sentence however, shows less confidence and more ambiguity in what you concluded.
In brief, you can use them interchangeably, but there is a slight difference between the two words that most people ignore.
