Ещё и реклама добивает с утра и выводит из себя, когда ты проспал, потому что приложение не сработало вовремя и сейчас ты за раз решаешь кучу примеров, лишь бы это заткнуть ### 3/5 — I I I would rate this zero stars if I could the problem is it doesn’t wake me up. T neither zero *2026-07-15, version 7.2.4* Stars ### 4/5 — Math Alarm pretty great! *2026-07-15, version 7.2.4* Doing some math keeps me awake long enough to not go back to sleep. It’s not a cure all, but it’s always been helpful to me for a relatively cheap price, used it for years as a safety measure that works to get me up for work or at least semi conscious while I snooze some more. It’s a useful tool and it will depend on the user, the ui is a bit cheesy but it’s functional enough for the price. ### 3/5 — Love the app but there are things that need improvement *2026-07-09, version 7.2.4* I want to start by praising the app a ton- Ive been using it for i think 5 years- and its gotten so much better since its started even. I like the alarm options- and the ability to use your own music and text-to-speech. And the different math levels. The locking of apps beforehand is an amazing feature- and the “dont wake my spouse” button is hilarious and extremely useful! I will always recommend this app and have been for years. Ive got a few issues that’ll hopefully be improved: 1 This seems like a newer issue from the last year or two, but sometimes some of the alarms just… dont go off. It happens once every few weeks, and once you open the app after the time it shouldve gone off, it goes off- which (like the top 0star review mentions) is really bad if you are already late for work and now have to do a bunch of math problems - or delete the app. 1a so the first thing to fix is figuring out why it sometimes isnt going off. For users: set the regular clock alarm too on your phone just in case, and make sure your phone isnt on mute 1b maybe an override to the math problems? I remember there is a qr code feature- so maybe a optional qr code override for math problems, and math override for qr codes in case its not scanning. 2 The alarms “stack” if one is already going off when another starts. Can there be an option to either turn it off or have a max number of alarms that stack? Update: the issue of it sometimes randomly not going off until i eventually wake up another way and unlock my phone and then they all go off, so ive overslept because of the alarms and can’t actually get started getting dressed or leave for my job or appt that i might even be late to until i do like 5 different alarms worth of math problems. this has gotten much worse over the last month as well with it even happening two days in a row, and day 2 it initially worked- i have 5 or 6 alarms and the first 2 did actually go off. But i fell back asleep after that and the other alarms didnt go off until i unlocked my phone. They werent shut off- just not alarming when the phone was locked ### 3/5 — Waking up my spouse *2026-06-29, version 7.2.4* The app works perfectly, and it’s free for everything I need…When you set an alarm there’s an option to silence the sound of the alarm while you solve math equations in order to not wake your spouse. But… after you complete the alarms questions, an advertisement starts playing at full volume, in my case it has been a casino app which wakes up my spouse because it’s so extremely loud. App works well. But adds after alarms need to be silent if something because it defeats the purpose ### 5/5 — Effective *2026-06-02, version 7.2.4* I never post reviews, but felt it was necessary because of how good this app is. I usually sleep in through literally any alarm — I’ve slept in through fire alarms! But this app like somehow makes a sound louder than my phone can make, it’s so weird. So freaking loud, always wakes me up without fail! And never goes silent like the apple alarm clock does. This is the best alarm ever. Thanks Mathe! ### 2/5 — Не блокирует выключение телефона !!! *2026-05-23* В чем польза если я могу одной кнопкой выключить телефон в полученном состоянии . Почему не блокируется эта кнопка ? И почему не блокируется возможность удаления приложения пока не решишь задачки ? ### 4/5 — good but could be better *2026-05-22, version 7.2.4* as a deep sleeper this app almost never fails to wake me up but i would appreciate simpler math equations. i just woke up i have no desire to do actual math i just needed a system that wouldn’t turn off on its own ### 2/5 — Фигня *2026-05-21* Не нужных функций полно, но просто отключить звук и оставить только вибрацию нельзя 😁😁😁 ### 5/5 — удивительно *2026-05-19, version 7.2.4* я проснулась в 5 а не в 15 впервые за месяц меня обливали водой рвали одежду выкидывали с кровати но я засыпала снова, звенело 10 будильников и звонков но я выключала и сбрасывала их во сне. и только ваш математический будильник помог мне встать вовремя и впервые за месяц прийти к первой паре благодарю надеюсь и дальше ваше математические примеру будут мне помогать просыпаться ### 5/5 — Perfect app for me *2026-05-15, version 7.2.4* I’m usually lazy but this lwk woke me up yo ### 5/5 — Work Where other Apps Haven't *2026-05-01, version 7.2.4* This really wakes me up where other apps fall short. The math problems make you feel fully awake, unlike being in some kind of stupor. It looks really well made—would recommend. ### 4/5 — Review *2026-04-12, version 7.2.4* It’s great for waking up but slightly annoying overall I love it ### 5/5 — it works *2026-03-26, version 7.2.4* i hate it, but it works fantastic ### 4/5 — My Review: Ups And Downs *2026-03-22, version 7.2.4* Mathe Alarm is a good app, but it has floors. I think it could be improved by the alarm getting louder when you get a question wrong. I think the developers should add more diverse selection of alarms. Overall this is a good app. I love it. The fact that you have to answer questions is cool because it awakens your brain while also doing what it's ment too ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — перестал корректно работать *2026-07-08* много лет пользуюсь, в последнее время просто перестал срабатывать. открываешь утром глаза, все проспал, а там или уведомление о сбое или они все разом играть начинают один за одним ### 1/5 — Works but outdated *2026-06-18, version 7.2.4* It’s functional but there are much sleeker and feature rich options out there, that are also free. No reason to use this app anymore. Also it spams me with notifications to fix it. ### 1/5 — doesn’t actually do anything *2026-06-08, version 7.2.4* alarm with the app closed is nothing but a faint buzz. THEN it plays a sound when you open it ### 1/5 — не работает *2026-05-21* бессмысленное приложение. звук начал играть только когда я открыла телефон (проспав на 4 часа) ### 1/5 — Not Good *2026-03-23, version 7.2.4* It crashes all the time and looks like it was designed in 2001 by a student, and they have the nerve to charge £15 to remove ads. ### 1/5 — USES BATTERY *2026-02-06, version 7.2.4* some days it uses 37% of my battery and I’m literally not even on the app. I’m only on that for two minutes in the morning. Don’t use this app and use it too much battery average day uses 25% of my battery my alarm what are you doing? ### 1/5 — Not *2026-01-30, version 7.2.4* I heat it ### 1/5 — Бесполезно *2026-01-26, version 7.2.4* Не работает в фоновом режиме, этим все сказано, горе разработчики ### 1/5 — Too quiet *2026-01-12, version 7.2.4* I go to sleep with white noise and it doesnt pause music. It just futility tries to play the mathe alarm at the same time and drowned out by anything playing on my phone. Its pointless ### 1/5 — Will Sometimes Never Sound *2025-11-28, version 7.2.4* Honestly love the idea of this app, and its general function. But as I rush around to the second time it failed to make any sound, with push notifications piling up in utter silence, and leaving me late for a very critical event, I wish I could take my money back and never have strayed from a generic alarm. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — LWK?? *2026-08-14, version 7.2.4* GIRLYS I AINT A BOT SO HERES AN ACTUAL REVIEW FOR YALL! OK ANYWAYS I TESTED IT AND IT TAKES FOREVER TO DO THE MATH EQUATION BECAUSE I AINT PROCESSING WHATS HAPPENING SO.I USUALLY PUT THE VOLUME ON ALL THE WAY UP AND PUT THE EQUATION ON 1 AND AFTER THAt, I LEAVE AND MAKE SURE TO LOCK IT WITH MY FACE ENTERY AND SO I DONT TRY DELETING IT SO I WAKE IP TO RINGING I CANT PUT ON SNOOZE :3 ### 5/5 — I love that this alarm does wake me up *2026-08-12, version 7.2.4* Even when I’m tired and hate the app, I love that it works ### 5/5 — App is so good *2026-07-31, version 7.2.4* I love this app- it wakes me up every single time and even if I try to go back to sleep afterwards, I don’t know what the alarm sounds are made of, but they like alert my brain to be awake so I can’t even go back to sleep once I hear it. this has been really good for me because I’ve had insomnia the past couple of weeks and I stay up super late and have to wake up really early so I’m held accountable for sure ### 5/5 — Loveeeee itttttt *2026-07-15, version 7.2.4* Loveeeee itttttt ### 5/5 — I use it as my 2nd alarm. *2026-06-24, version 7.2.4* It does have some bug that shuts off if you close the app, but….it does help my brain wake up and get moving in the morning. ### 5/5 — Gets me up *2026-06-19, version 7.2.4* I love that it gets me on my feet and thinking. It works. Don’t keep phone next to bed so have to get up to answer questions. ### 5/5 — Great for deep sleepers. *2026-06-18, version 7.2.4* This app is great for. Deep sleepers. For two reasons. One, you can set it to go off on your Bluetooth speaker with this horrific sound that chatters and you can add a little of your favorite music, which is great because then it forces you to do. So many math problems before it'll shut off. It's like that's the only way you're gonna get it shut off. So you have to concentrate, which gets you your mind active and you become fully awake. The other is the fact that once you've accomplished the math, you can enjoy whatever song it is you set it for and enjoy listening to the rest of it is a reward. I've never quite found an alarm clock so effective as this one. ### 5/5 — Самый лучший будильник *2026-06-12* Лично мне очень нравится можно записывать что надо сделать за день можно записывать когда надо вставать мне очень нравится потому что будильник обычный так не делает я встаю ровно когда настраиваю я поставила пять звёзд очень классное приложение ### 5/5 — Works *2026-06-02, version 7.2.4* Works ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-06-02, version 7.2.4* This Mathe alarm clock is pleasantly functional. Thank you to the developer for making life a bit less stressful. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
