Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: LiveHome at 4.4 against SafetyGuard's 3.0. LiveHome also leads on ratings volume (3.5K vs 2). SafetyGuard's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 26) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
