RestWake pairs a wake-up alarm that sounds in Silent mode and Do Not Disturb with a math challenge. Restrict distracting apps while you rest, then solve the math to unlock and end repeat alarms. SILENT MODE? DO NOT DISTURB? IT STILL RINGS RestWake uses Apple AlarmKit to sound wake-up alarms even in Silent mode or Do Not Disturb. Alarms are scheduled on your iPhone and do not rely on a server push command. Alarm permission is required. NOT UNLOCKED? THE ALARM RINGS AGAIN Stopping the current ring does not complete the wake-up task or remove your selected-app restrictions. If the task remains unfinished, RestWake schedules another alarm 60 seconds later. Solve the math to unlock, stop the current ring, and cancel follow-up alarms. CHOOSE WHAT TO PUT AWAY Choose the apps to restrict during your rest plan so you can put distractions aside. RestWake limits only the apps you select, with your authorization. A CLEAR, NON-RECURRING PURCHASE MODEL Start with one local plan without signing in. Eligible new accounts may receive a 30-day trial of one extra plan slot and three Edit Cards on their first sign-in. Additional plan slots and Edit Cards are one-time purchases. Edit Cards are for modifying recurring plans. Purchases require sign-in and an internet connection. Prices are shown in the App Store. There are no subscriptions or automatic renewals. WHAT TO KNOW RestWake requires iOS 26.1 or later and alarm permission to schedule alarms. To restrict apps you choose, you must also allow RestWake to apply limits to those apps. If Pass service is unavailable, you can still solve the math prompt on your iPhone. Waiting to unlock is available only for eligible plans. RestWake cannot guarantee that every person will wake or that an alert will play under every system or device condition. When you change devices, account plans may be restored, but alarm schedules and system authorizations need to be configured again on the new iPhone.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: RestWake at none against MathWake's shown. MathWake's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
