Ratings and reviews

I installed the App, tried to make my recording, and it looked like it was recording but the save button wouldn't work, play wouldn't work, tried three times got nowhere. I don't understand why I have to m8 a recording! Don6 you have List of Sounds, like other Earthquakes Apps do? So frustrating, I deleted App. Sure would appreciate some answers!

A shake alarm can really help you to be prepared for earthquakes as primary then secondary waves of motion do occure.better then a wind chime that has metal tubes hanging on suspended strings tubes close to each other to sound out yet this downloadable appt registers motion in a particular location to help alert and chart the intensities.
