Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Awake Assist at none against MultiTimer's 4. Awake Assist also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 79%). MultiTimer's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (16K vs 3). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
