Ratings and Reviews
Fantastic App
I downloaded this when I was in Morocco during the 6.9 earthquake in 2023, as I was worried about the aftershocks that night. But even beyond that night I’ve found it interesting how active the world is. One feature I would appreciate as someone who travels fairly frequently, is the ability for it to send critical alerts based on your current location. For example I’m travelling around SE Asia next month and would like it if I didn’t have to set up each country individually.
Absolutely invaluable
Having lived through a major earthquake over 10 years ago now - the aftermath of which was terrifying - having something like this application really is an asset. Set your own filters and be warned of events almost as soon as they occur. Preparedness is the key when living in any region of the world prone to major earthquakes. Definitely consider the Pro version: support the developers and unlock the full features. Well worth every penny.
Brilliant - so much information
I’ve had the Pro version for a while now, watching it continue to develop and am very impressed. From the customisable alerts to the truly in-depth information options including downloadable information and links (the more I look the more I find!). A very useful and informative app for both the knowledgable and learners alike I’d say. Highly recommended.
