According to kidsandcars.org since 1990 more than 900 children have died in hot cars in the U.S. Yearly, 38 kids die on average. There are many studies attempting to explain this traumatic and heartbreaking phenomenon which leaves a lifelong scar and mark for those who have experienced such a painful tragedy. The fact is we are living in a fast-paced time where we are bombarded with many distractions and unexpected stresses. For parents of newborns, there is also the sudden adaptation of what is called “prospective memory” which involves the intent to try and remember to complete tasks out of your ordinary routine which may lead to forgetting your child in a car. Today, there is a practical solution and answer to preventing the devastation of losing a child or pet due to unintentionally leaving one behind in a hot car or frozen car. Introducing the SAFE SEAT app.  For years the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has encouraged you to remember: Park.Look.Lock. The SAFE SEAT app is a practical and easy to use audio and visual alert system which further reminds you to check your backseat before you exit your vehicle. Reminder systems do exist in the market today but most require some external piece of hardware and are unaffordable for many. SAFE SEAT exists right at your fingertips via Bluetooth GPS locator. Once you parked a written notification and sound will alert you to check your backseat. For peace of mind, you can set interval alarms ranging from 1 to 5 minutes.  All you need to do is sign up via email or a popular social media site such as Facebook, register your name and location and SAFE SEAT is there.  SAFE SEAT is the creation of aspiring children’s book author and mother of a toddler, Sadie Quinn. She states, “After becoming a first-time mom I began noticing article after article about babies being left in cars and dying. I could not imagine that happening to me and my child. After searching the marketplace I could not find an app that could help me. I created Safe Seat to fill that need and bring peace of mind to those that use it.” Download SAFE SEAT today for a 60-day free trial period on iOS. Safe Seat because the child’s life you save may be your own.  Terms and Conditions- https://safeseatapp.com/terms-of-service/

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Safe at 67% against Evenflo's 31%. Safe also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Evenflo's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (4.4K vs 7). On price, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Safe sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Evenflo asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Evenflo holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Evenflo has 4.4K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 31% of Evenflo's written reviews are positive against 67% of Safe's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Evenflo ships an update every 2 months, Safe every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
