Love this app. It started with 0 ads and I understand they need to make some money and the amount of ads now is acceptable/tolerable considering how many ads are in every other app lol. They also make the Northern Lights App and I was so happy when I found that, it was great. Happy to send kofi money!! 4 stars and not 5 because the settings are a little clunky to navigate but since there's not an overwhelming amount, it's not time consuming to look through the list for what you need.

Leaving GPS on drains batteries. Needs to remember last location of the phone. Most people stay in a 10 to 50 mile radius of their homes/work. That isn't good for immediate reporting, you can turn off that function, but would allow people to get info for recent quakes. Needs to better filter out earthquakes not near me. It is not easy to 'look up' possible quakes. USGS has a good option, could be an idea to start. Great concept. I can't use it because I won't leave in my Loc function.

This app is ok, but limited. It would be better if you could select a distance (for example, 100 mile radius) from a fixed location (not my phone's location). Or if the information tabs at least included the distance. This wouldn't be extremely difficult, as they know the GPS location of each quake, so all they need is the GPS location of your target. That information is typically available either on your phone, or can be found in many map programs.

I can't figure out how to set filters for magnitude, proximity to me, and time frame. I had pictured an app where I could zoom in or out on a map and be shown pins that fit my parameters. Think: Zillow. I guess it's fine for what it does, but I don't want to scroll through dozens of alerts from all over the world to see the 4.1 that happened 20 miles from my house while I was sleeping.

Good for basic notifications only. Needs to have ability to set multiple alarms. I want to be notified of lesser magnitude quakes in my area and greater worldwide. Also a setting for specific radius for "near me". I don't need to know of every 3.0 in California but would be interested in them in the Puget Sound area. Tried the Pro version but same choices. Otherwise, good basic info app.

Reliable with lots of customizations. I downloaded the app because we had a 5.6 earthquake in our area and the aftershocks were making me nuts. I couldn't tell if it was just in my head or if they were really happening. The app is able to give you data globally and customize it down to just within a hundred miles of your region. You can determine whether or not you receive alerts and for the intensity of the event alerted for. Very versatile and reliable app.
