# Awake vs MatrixDo

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Awake at 11 against MatrixDo's 1. On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Awake sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and MatrixDo sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Awake against 5.0 for MatrixDo. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Awake has 11 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Awake ships an update every 6 weeks, MatrixDo every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
