Are you awake vs Are you still awake

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'Are you awake?' is a general question to ask if someone is currently awake. 'Are you still awake?' is used when you suspect the person might have been asleep or you are checking if they are awake at a later time.
