Hunter's comment
QuakeAlert is smartphone application that alerts it's user when an earthquake is about to start. With a 20-30 seconds delay before the earthquake starts you have enough time to find a place to hide, or take some safety measures.
QuakeAlert is the app that even though it was in beta alerted it's users 30 seconds prior to the earthquake in 5 april, in L.A. More about the event here
Now let's see what the app is capable of:
(data taken from their website here)
- the app gives you the expected arrival time
- the expected intensity
- the Distance From Quake Epicenter compared to your current location
- magnitude
- suggests safety measures
The app is still in beta, but you can sign up to get access anytime. Check more on their website here.
What do you think about this app? Is it ok to have it, do you think 20-30 seconds are enough to change the results? What if you get only 10s alert before the earthquake?
Leave your thoughts below.

Personal Assessment
Awesome Hunt @ady-was-here | Safe You From Earthquake
Note: This is just ”My Personal Opinion & Assessment”, not intended to “Judge” the reviews you have made.
Pros:
QuakeAlert is a pretty useful android app, especially for areas prone to earthquakes / tsunamis / volcanoes. Earthquakes are a moment that can kill anyone if we do not react quickly.
QuakeAlert will provide earthquake-related warnings, from when it comes, how much intensity, and what you should do to avoid and save yourself and your family.
Although this application will only give 30 seconds warning before the earthquake, but for 30 seconds we can produce the best action to save themselves.
Cons:
There is no. This is very useful and can save many lives.
