Staying Alive in a few words: Staying Alive is an app that allows anyone trained (or not) in CPR to help save a victim of cardiac arrest by being alerted by Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Our mission: In France, there are 50,000 sudden cardiac arrests per year. The survival rate from this scourge is less than 10%. Our mission is to respond to the life-threatening emergency of cardiac arrest by engaging a trained, committed and supportive community to create a safer world. Your role downloading Staying Alive: You directly help the victim by performing a CPR or by getting a defibrillator. Our app allows each citizen to help in the event of cardiac arrest by doubling the victim's chances of survival (1 minute lost is 10% less chance of survival). You actively participate in creating an AED database provided free of charge to EMS. What you will find in Staying Alive: → The largest AED database in the world: you can add, edit and report nearby defibrillators. → A practical and comprehensive guide to life-saving actions. → News about first aid and stats on the Staying Alive community.

Curani Care
Read full descriptionHide full description
Curani Care is the companion app for caregivers. When someone you care for uses Curani to manage their medications, they can invite you to follow along — no account, no server of ours, and nothing they didn't explicitly share. See their medications, dosing schedule, and dose history at a glance. Tap any medication to see its own trend, or switch to a calendar view. A clear "needs attention" summary surfaces missed doses. Scan the invite QR code from their Curani app, or tap their share link, and their dashboard appears. Following more than one person? Each has their own space. Send a gentle check-in so they know you're there, without nagging. Ask Siri how they're doing: “Did Mom take their pills in Curani Care?” Siri tells you what's been taken, what's overdue and what's next. Or send a check-in by voice: “Check in on Mom with Curani Care.” Curani Care works with Curani, the private medication reminder — the person you care for installs Curani and shares their care with you.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Curani Care at every 9 days against Staying Alive's monthly. Staying Alive's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
