Earthquake Alert!

It used to lock my settings and be more accurate but has since slowed considerably. I've reviewed all the settings and reset them 4 or 5 times and to no avail. I need it, in the wake of recent California events, not ONCE has it functioned- no warnings, the distance is off and goes off satellite setting. Please advise. As of November 2019, I have yet to receive notifications.

this app is weird. it'll alert you one or two times, then for some reason it'll just quit sending alerts all together. There is delay of up to 15 minutes between occurrence and notification. Even still, what's the point of having the app, if it fails to notify you at all? Point is, I've noticed, you have to uninstall it and then reinstall it quite often for it to work.

The map and filters are great. I get NO notifications. Had the PRO version. Have tried uninstalling, reinstalling and even the free version, with no luck. It used to work great. Have contacted the developer, waiting to hear back. So good for viewing and news.. Very bad for notifications UPDATE: emailed the developer July 4, 2019. Have had no reply. Still do not get alerts. Disappointing as the Kansas earthquake situation is interesting.

05/12/2020: Sadly as of this date, thiis appears to no longer function at all. I would love to see this working again (or find another app as good as this one was). Older: Selecting the event from the list should bring up the menu as it did previously. The world map is frustrating and useless, should be selected from the menu. Having now to tap the 3 dots for the menu greatly reduces (one-handed) usability.

Update:. Recently started crashing upon opening. Tried clearing cache, data, uninstalled, reinstalled, verified permissions. Nothing works. Cannot use it any longer. Was nice when it worked. ---------------- really like this app. It lets me keep tabs on the shaking, and when I feel tremors, I can check to see how strong they were.

I like this app! We live in CA, and so far, it has been very accurate. The recent earthquake preliminary magnitudes stated on TV ended up being wrong, but this app was correct, right from the beginning. The only thing I would like, is some sort of notification of there's an earthquake within a certain mileage of us, otherwise lots of useful info here.

Way better than the official websites on earthquakes. Some are so primitive it's hard to make any sense of. Great visuals, settings are ok. I would like to see longer search engines and more magnitute incraments 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 ect.. along with different colors of each level. blue being a 1.0 and moving towards deap red or white for magnitude 7.0 and higher.

Was great, used this app on a daily basis and has always been accurate and reliable, unfortunately it stopped working about 10 days ago, have sent developer emails but no response. Have tried all the usual, clearing logs, uninstalling and reinstalling, and trying to install on different devices but problem persists with same error message regardless. Works in map, news and stats mode, but latest mode which tells you the latest quakes and severity, which is what I need doesnt work.

Like others have mentioned, this app used to be great. However, it no longer works properly. Even with the additional app for filters/notifications, they do not operate properly anymore. The app still obtains information for quakes, but seems to only ever pull that data when I force the app to get it. The app also never sends notifications on any quakes either. Had a series of quakes in our area last night, with the largest being a 6.0+ and never got a single notification from the app for any of the 30+ quakes/aftershocks all night.

Alert actually went off just as I realized it was an earthquake. Cool that it went off though. Was driving and the car started getting all wobbly like the tires were all coming off their axles, started pulling over and the alert sounded. Was a 5.8 almost on top of us. Hopefully next time it will go off a few seconds before. Also cool that I could see details for the quake without having to do an internet search. I will keep this app.

I have had this app for many years, I live in California and this to me is the best one there is, there is a add on to this app as an enhancement that can send out an audible signal alert to your settings as per your settings as to how many miles and magnitude, but I'm not finding this addons in the app store and I am no longer able to connect to its server, I wanted to upgrade to the paid version but I guess it is no longer offered also, that's a shame this is a really good and accurate app.

Love it! Been using this for years! I just wish the Alerter Add-On was free like it used to be. 😭 I live in California very close to the San Andreas fault. The alerts are EXTREMELY important for my family and I. I also would like for all of the quakes to be on the map through the quake info. I gave it 3 stars because those 2 things changed. You'll get 5 if you bring back the add-on for free and the map issue.

The app and add on were great, then after a while the app just stopped completely working. I would find out from others and then go into the app to find out what it was. The app needs to be worked on and can't recommend it till it's fixed, and the programmer doesn't seem bothered to fix and update the app in the mean time.

This app is great! I shared it with all my loved ones after today's 400+ earthquakes in our state. You can change the settings to show different magnitudes, clustered/uncluttered, 24/48 hrs. It's easy to navigate and the UI is clean and fast. Good job, developers and designers. :)

This one gets two stars because literally every other earthquake app I've tried only gets one star (including the USGS app). The app is buggy and often stalls out when downloading any kind of info. It seems to utterly loathe Spectrum. The only reason I still have this app is because the tectonic boundary overlay on the Google Map image of earth is very useful to me. When it works, that is. Which is about half the time I need it.

The app keeps stopping when opening making it unuseable. Probably a good app but hard to know when it stops within 5 seconds of trying to open. I will let you know if i am ever able to open it. I have sent feedback numerous times Seems to make no difference. Update: glitch fixed very pleased with this app. Fixed quickly!!!

What happened to this app? It was working great and I loved it but recently stopped working. Did Covid-19 kill it? HAHAAA. Please fix it soon Update 5/28. It had started to work great, enjoyed it for awhile since my review. Then yesterday it constantly crashes. It comes up for a second or 2 then crashes. Yes, I Uninstalled it then reinstalled it and it does the same

Keeps shutting off. It only opens for a second then shuts off. This use to be a great app. I've used it for years, but for months now it's the same thing. Never even opens. I tried uninstalling then re installed... But that didn't work. Work out the kinks or take the app discontinue the app! You don't even deserve one star!

The app was great until it stopped working months ago, then an update was made, it crashed upon starting the app. Luckily they fixed it. Now the app no longer have the alerts. Before you could change the alert and now it has absolutely no alerts. I with they fix it so I can return the 5 stars it had.

It's pretty unfortunate this app doesn't notify you when there are earthquakes. Especially when you live in Alaska with earthquakes all the time and need the notifications to stay safe from aftershocks and tsunami's. If you want to know what's happening, you have to constantly be opening the app and checking... Which doesn't help during an emergency.

Very good and functional app except.. The apps' name says 'alert' but it hasn't an alert function as stated in the disclaimer. I wish this app could be upgraded to function as an ALERT and pull data from SSN in México City. They have a system that sends early notification & sounds alarms throughout the streets in every state! I like the apps' layout & configurations options. Then this could be the #1 app of its kind with language support.👍👌

I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU SEND MONEY ON THIS APP!!! Used to love this app. since the latest version of Android and my pixel 3xl it will no longer connect or send alerts. I have paid for the pro version and have sent several emails with screen shots to help resolve the issue on multiple occasions with no response. If it is fixed i will update this review.

I used this app for two years and as of this week, it WILL NOT even open for more than about two seconds. Then it says it's stopped working and closing it or reporting it are the only options. I uninstalled and reinstalled it three times and have the same outcome. Very upset. This is the only earthquake app I liked. I've checked several others and don't like any of them. Please fix the app.

Unable to open app. Have a Note 9 with the latest updates and OS. Crashes as soon as it opens. Tried uninstalling, rebooting, reinstalling. No change. Same thing again. Used to work. Not anymore. Was a nice app for the short time it used to work.
