not very accurate

Continually sense false phone usage when my phone is in the glove box even.

Junk malware

Absolute garbage. Shouldn’t be in the App store. It causes distractions due to malfunctions and incompatibility with voice activated apps. Precisely what it claims to prevent.

Constantly distracting me while I drive

This app constantly comes up on my phone if navigation is open and the phone is in the holder. It is distracting to constantly get messages from lifesaver even though I’m not using my phone for anything other than navigation and I’m not touching or holding my phone.
