Best quake app on iPhone

Work well. Has advanced functions. Developers are responsives. Worth the 3.99$. Suggestions: add categories, search capabilities and preferences. Go get it now.

Great app!

Best earthquake app, not to mention I got it when it was free:)

5 Stars!

I have had this app for years and it has always served me well!

A great EQ reference...

Cool app. One suggestion for the next update. I would like to be able to go from a quake on the EQ list to its location on the map. Right now you can click on a quake on the map to take you to its info on the list, but not the other way around. At least not that I have found yet.

The maps make all the difference

Beautiful job combining maps, great graphics, and the latest earthquake data from around the world. I agree with the other reviewer that you should be able to click straight through from the list to the map, but thats the only thing I can think of that this program is missing. Very useful, very entertaining. Highly recommended.

Fianlly!

Thank you!! I have been waiting for an app like this!! Maybe in the future a satalite view? (see terrain)

Nice start

Decent repackaging of USGS earthquake locations in past 24 hours. Map is rather slow in responding to pans and zooms on a good wi-fi connection-would worry on EDGE if this pulls map data over net, as it seems to do.. Lack of detail at broader map scales (e.g. Western U.S.) rather unappealing-could add major faults, for instance. Twitter and google news searches are rather lame (only search on single keyword "earthquake"? Cmon can do a little better). Zoom to current location can be a bit annoying as chosen scale may be too close to see quakes in range. Would be nice to see indication of proximity of quakes to either current location or saved location in map list. Outside U.S., coverage spotty as threshold for inclusion in USGS reports is higher (there are other organizations that report quakes to a lower level elsewhere).

Great application!

This is a great application that does exactly what it is intended to do. The latest version allows for going from a quake entry within the list to viewing the specific location on the map. I also appreciate the “locate me” feature to see what quakes have occurred around me. I can see this being a VERY useful in the situation of a larger quake where I might not be by a computer. A feature request I have is to add an option to email the USGS page from the “Links” section on the quake info screen. Great job on this application!

I really like this...

I dont live in an earthquake zone, I got this app for my own curiosity. I like the map part, showing you were the earthquake occurred. I also like the listing that, if you click on it, will change to the map exactly where the earthquake occurred. My only problem is that this is the first app to actually lock up my iphone.

Fears for the Worst !

Ive always been facinated with tracking Earthquakes. This App lets me glimpse where and when current Earthquakes occured. I see alot of small magnitude Earthquake occurances circled around where I live and it puts this fear that these several small tremors might one day become one giant one thats gonna cause devastation. I like this app cuz it lets me keep track. 5 s and Two 

Im lucky I just got this app for free!

This is a very well thought out app... Well worth the actual price. Thank you for letting me get it for free and in return I hope this 5* review helps you get the word out.

Awesome

WOW... even if it needs improvments, still does the job and its FREE

Very good info...

I touched the color spots, and I found more information. Glad to have this app.

Love it

This app is awesome. I live in CA so info on quakes can be important. I leave it sorted by list and it loads very fast even on a slow connection. Maps load slower but not too bad. Love this app.

Simple but effective

This a great program. Simple interface with a lot of information. Touch the area that had the quake and it gives more information.

Great but...

I love this application. I would give it five stars if I could manually supply my location on my iPod Touch - it seems to default to zero lat and long so the distances are incorrectly calculated.

User

I had the app and it quit so I tried deleting it and downloading it again. Now it is not free anylonger. Too bad I cannot use it now. Did it quit because they now want me to buy it?

Very Useful App

This app provides startling information about earthquake activity worldwide. @ User: Ive uninstalled and re-installed this app on multiple occasions. Once this app, or any other app, is downloaded, it remains in your personal iTunes account. You can re-install it at anytime at no additional cost.

Pretty nice app

Does what it says... Would like to see more information on quakes like local time instead of rounded number of how long ago.

Problems!!!!

Just now went to check my Mappity Quakes app and I see that everything is blank as if there are no quakes happening anywhere on Earth, which I know is not possible. Dont know whats going on but I hope that it is fixed soon
