Our edge is the combination of documented features, not a claim that every alternative lacks them. None of these five competitors’ reviewed official descriptions advertises heartbeat recording or live heartbeat sharing. Couple Pulse’s iPhone listing includes both: latest saved recording per person free; live sharing and full history with Premium. Heartbeat and drawing availability varies by platform and app version; check the Android listing for its current features. Competitor sources are linked in each comparison.
