# MathWake vs Math Alarm Clock

The clearest difference is rating: Math Alarm Clock at 4.5 against MathWake's 3.3. Math Alarm Clock also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). MathWake's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and review sentiment (100% vs 80%). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MathWake sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Math Alarm Clock sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Math Alarm Clock holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Math Alarm Clock has 24 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of MathWake's written reviews are positive against 80% of Math Alarm Clock's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MathWake ships an update every 6 weeks, Math Alarm Clock weekly. Both last shipped on November 13, 2026.
