# Fire Safe vs iRescue

The clearest difference is rating: Fire Safe at 4.3 against iRescue's 3.0. Fire Safe also leads on ratings volume (14 vs 2). iRescue's advantage is review sentiment (59% vs 50%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fire Safe sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month and iRescue sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Fire Safe holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Fire Safe has 14 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Fire Safe's written reviews are positive against 59% of iRescue's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
