  1. 5/5The push alert should be free for all

    I appreciate the free version of the USGS phone app. However, the push notification for for earthquakes et al should be free as well (not just the pro version). In fact making it free, I contend, would be the ethical thing to do; public safety is important for all of us. I am a disabled and therefore retiring professor in a small northern CA town. For me, even $2.99 is too much and I know I’m not the only one experiencing financial hardship in this area for one reason or another; there are many of us. Please consider making the push notifications free as well. Again, I really appreciate the free version of the app, u do have; I ask, and would appreciate it if the push notification could be free as well. Thank u for reading and considering this.

  2. 4/5Soso

    This app has potential. Great locating, easy to view when map options are low, tectonic fault only that do define strike/slip or subduction and appears up to date w/i few minutes. Challenges: map a bit too generic needs terrain relief(not aerial) standard illustration like on old maps. The earthquake points could be exaggerated a bit more as to size of quake. Color scheme is lost when adding population density which should be a blue scheme or grey scheme not the same as quakes. All faults, volcanos and hot springs should be noted in map too. Lastly a history button for locations pulled up that either integrates with a site like USGS or even just to a search engine and allow you to chose. This is the free version and I didn’t see any of this advertised for premium so until I see ideas such as these or better I won’t go premium. Cheers

  3. 5/5Great App

    Can’t believe someone would rate any app low when it was free and the “good stuff” is in the paid version. They are all like that unless you get one with “in app” purchases which I hate. I’d rather pay an update fee of $.25 every year considering the work that goes into the app. I only have one complaint...they get earthquake info (it appears to me) from different sources so often it appears like there are two quakes but there is one...unless I’m missing something. Sometimes the notification appears to be in Chinese sometimes in English. Otherwise, this works great on my Watch!! Thanks! ETA: This works better and faster than the quake notification system recommended for the California residents.

  4. 5/5The app is outstanding,

    The app that you get in the basic package works great as long as you are ok with minor earthquakes 6.6 and below on the Standard scale. This is pretty much all I need it for. We don't get anything larger in magnitude here in Colorado, Wyoming, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Kansas, and Utah‼️🙏🏼❤️😃❤️🙏🏼‼️ If we do, I live close enough to the NSGS in Golden Colorado to make the local phone call to find out what happened‼️🙏🏼❤️😃😍😁🙏🏼‼️ If you want to follow the New Madrid or the San Andreas faults where the "big ones" are predicted, you can't go wrong buying the upgrade packages‼️🙏🏼❤️😃💬🙏🏼‼️ I'm a retired teacher so cost is a factor, but the app programmer did a great job for what I need‼️🙏🏼😃🙏🏼‼️ GOD BLESS AND BE EXCELLENT‼️🙏🏼😃🙏🏼‼️

  5. 4/5Good, but waiting to purchase for a better widget.

    This is a very good app. And the price point is reasonable. But the problem is there are all lot of good earthquake apps with reasonable price points. What has me on the verge of buying this app is the widget. None of the other earthquake apps have decent widgets. This app kind of does. But the widget needs two things. First it is limited to country, and there should be a whole world option. The second problem with the widget is it does not have a small widget available. On an iPad, medium and large are fine options, but on the smaller iPhone, an even more condensed small widget is needed. Once those things arrive, this will be a 5 star must purchase.

  4. 5/5

    One of the better earthquake apps I've tried recently. It's kept up to date and has very accurate information. Definitely worth trying, I'm about to upgrade to the pro version.

  5. 4/5

    A great app, I love the regional options making it easy to find a recent earthquake in a specific country. This app has much better coverage for world wide events.
