# Off vs Wake PC

The clearest difference is rating: Off at 4.5 against Wake PC's 3.7. Off also leads on ratings volume (495 vs 3). Wake PC's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (82% vs 52%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Off sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Wake PC sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Off holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Off has 495 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 52% of Off's written reviews are positive against 82% of Wake PC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Off ships an update every 3 weeks, Wake PC weekly. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
