ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Tigersafe holds the better App Store score, 3.2 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tigersafe has 13 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Tigersafe's written reviews are positive against 43% of Monroe CC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Tigersafe ships an update every 40 months, Monroe CC every 4 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
