★★★★★Worked as intended
The app actually worked. I had forgotten that I installed the app. Tonight it sent me notification that there is an earthquake. Less than a minute later there was actually an earthquake. It sent another warning a few minutes later and about a minute after there was an after shock. Although 45-60 seconds doesn’t seem like much time but it provided enough information to quickly decide if I need to take cover or not.
★★★★☆It’s good
The app is good, it’s just that I feel that you should be able to adjust the minimum magnitude for the alerts, because
in my city we get earthquakes below 4.5 that are sometimes very strong, and get no alert for it. So that’s why I think you should be able to put the minimum magnitude on the alerts
★★★★★Easy to use
Easy to change parameters for alerts. Reasonably good UI. We weren’t disturbed by an error alert in the middle of the night because we don’t keep our phones in our bedroom. Better than several of the alternatives in the App Store. Experienced an short earthquake today and the app alerted within a second of feeling the jolt. Of course it would be better to get the alert a few seconds before.
★★★★★Early alert works!
Today I was hanging out with the family watching movies as hurricane Hillary was passing by OC with heavy rain and winds, when all of a sudden I got an alert in my apple watch from an app I’ve never heard/seen before, so it caught my attention right away and it was something like “brace yourself, earthquake with Ventura epicenter” type of alert, and as I was telling my fam about it we then started to feel the ground moving!
That was an amazing to experience, having a heads up could make a big
★★★★★Worked perfectly yesterday!
I recently downloaded this app when prepping an earthquake kit. Yesterday was tropical storm Hilary in SoCal and this app notified me a good 10 seconds before the earthquake hit and gave me enough time to get to safety and text a friend before I felt it. I received the “amber alert” on my phone from the city basically as the earthquake hit. This app gave me valuable time, and much sooner than the city/state was able to.
