Every other alarm lets you cheat. Snooze, dismiss, roll over, and you're asleep again. Vertical takes that option away. When the alarm goes off, silencing it is only step one. To actually turn it off you complete a short wake-up mission. Dismiss the app without finishing and the alarm re-arms and comes back. It ends when you're genuinely awake, not when you tap a button. CHOOSE YOUR MISSION - Math: a few quick problems. No camera needed. - Push-ups: counted by the front camera. - Scan the sky: point your phone at daylight. - Touch grass: get outside for real. WHY IT WORKS - No snooze. No dismiss-and-roll-over. No hidden escape hatch. - The alarm keeps coming back until the mission is done. - Every camera mission has a "do math instead" option, so you're never stuck. - One job, done well. A calm, focused design. Wake up on time. Actually get up. Vertical Pro unlocks the full app. Monthly and yearly plans, each with a 3-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lock Access at none against Vertical's 2. Lock Access also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 26.1). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
