Allstate Drivewise Savings ?

I am really, really loathe to signup for Drivewise (allstate) as I hate the idea of having a phone app watching the way I drive. I haven't had a claim for years but I wonder if the savings are significant if you use it ? 5% 10% more ?

Any input or feelback (or alternative) is appreciated.

(EDIT) EPILOGUE:

Okay, I wanted to thank everyone for their input.

There is no way this app (or any other) would work for me. At someone's suggestion I went to web site to see Allstate's collection criteria - they are not specific but they do mention harsh braking and number of times above 80 (and driving at night). Although I consider myself a safe driver (no claims in 5+ years), I drive a performance car with performance brakes - I am often above 80 (temporarily) and often brake hard. I have little doubt that no company would view their metrics collected on me in any sort of beneficial way. In other words thanks - my mind is now made up.

On another note, IDK why insurance companies can't just base your rates on your driving record.
