Ratings and reviews

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.

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.

Update** notification at 3 mins with estimated 5.7.. one min later 5.1 happened. Great App!. I like this one the best. It is always up to date, accurate and simple to use. Sometimes you just need to know if there was an earthquake nearby, not so many details and chatter and ads, etc. On a day when we were having many foreshocks, this app alerted my phone and within seconds we had a good tremor.
