Ratings and reviews

The app updated on my phone about a month ago, ever since then, I no longer get alerts for 6.0 and larger quakes, it used to have a different notification sound for the larger quakes. I have also noticed that other notifications won't pop up in the task bar or alert unless you open the app.. What happened..? I have tried deleting and downloading the app with no luck at fixing this issue.

UPDATE -- I deleted the data and now it's working like it's brand new 🙂 Thanks so much for quickly solving the problem!! -------------------------------- Not working. About a month ago it stopped working correctly. Now the app is trying to work but it says there's NO new information...and shows NO information on earthquakes or volcanoes. I have a Samsung Galaxy s10e.

I was so impressed by what I saw I had to review it before I've even had it a day. This is what I was looking for! Deleted 2 other apps because this combined all the features they had plus offered more (hadn't even considered volcanoes before this). Robust settings options. Great sorting selections (time of occurrence, distance, magnitude, region, and more!). Ability to report felt earthquakes. There's so much I will run out of space if I try. Very impressed.
