SAFE 2 SAVE

I have struggled with using my phone while driving for a very long time. I have 3 college aged daughters to whom I constantly harp on about “teching” while driving, while I do exactly what I lecture against. The other day, I saw a news story in San Antonio that explained how a fellow Aggie (whoop!) created this app and the premise behind it. I thought I’d try it, hoping it would change my behavior. And it already has. The feature that shows an uploaded photo of my three daughters every time I pick up my phone has been life changing. I’m sure I sound dramatic, but seeing their faces reminds me that it truly isn’t worth it. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! I highly recommend this app!

This app has a great concept and I love using it and gaining points when I drive but there is only 5 Things available in Austin, TX. I’m a girl and they recently added a place where men can get their hair cut? This does not benefit many people using the app. They also have aceable on there which is great! I am using aceable right now to get my license and I wish I would’ve known about the discount when I first got aceable! Although having aceable is great there is really nothing else in the Austin Area to use it on, so I won’t be using this app anymore along with many people in Austin because there is nothing really to gain points for. I requested a couple different things on the app, I’m not really sure how those work so I’m hopeful that they reach out to places in Austin! But if nothing more gets added to the Austin Area there is no real reason for people in Austin to use this app, which is unfortunate since it seemed like such a great idea/concept.

I've been using this app for a year now and absolutely love it! It's really helped me to change my bad habit of texting and driving and I love that I get prizes for doing something that I should be doing anyway. I also like that it doesn't track me in a creepy way or invade my privacy like some of the other insurance apps do. The early version had some bugs that other users mentioned but those have been worked out for a while now and I never have any problems with it. Awesome app! Would love to see it in other states for all of my out of town family who want to use it too.

My 8 yr old daughter is one the biggest advocates of Safe 2 Save. When we get in the car, she always reminds me of 2 things! She’ll say Dad, put your seat belt on. Then without hesitation she asks for my phone, and turns on the app. A few years ago we were on our way home and saw a wreck happen in front of us. Ever since then she’s been vigilant about car safety and she makes sure that we are using Safe 2 Save. She also chooses where we use our points :-)

I downloaded this app about 3 weeks ago and so far most of the app is satisfying. I enjoy using the deals for food. The only problem I have is how annoying the notifications are. When it notifies me not to be on my phone I click passenger unlock. (I dont have a liscence yet, I’m not 16.) But like 2 minutes later it tells me the same thing. It’s annoying to have to press passenger unlock 20 times in one car ride. I would suggest an update where after passenger unlock is clicked, it’s unlocked for that whole car ride. But everything else is good. Thanks.
