Reviews of MyShake

  • Notification before it happen

    I really love this app. Since I installed it I have been notified of an earthquake like 5 times in the radius of 5O miles from me. I have been notified while driving, at work and while watching TV at home. I feel a little more in control when I hear “Earthquake, drop, cover and hold on. shaking expected”. At least I’m given the opportunity to react a few seconds before it happen. I hope we never have “the big one” but having this app makes me feel a little ahead even if it’s just seconds!
  • Invaluable app, but not perfect

    The app doesn’t have the most slick user interface, but it works well. I don’t generally encounter any glitches. And when I get an earthquake alert it is usually very fast and very loud. That’s actually a good thing. However, it’s probably human error that caused my biggest issue with the app. One night this week I was woken up at around 3:20 AM for an accidental test alarm. It’s such a loud, jarring alert that it really caused me to panic for a moment. Then it took me a very long time to get back to sleep, making getting up on time the next morning miserable. I think there needs to be much better processes and layers of checks in place for whoever has access to send test alarms.
  • Early alert works!

    Today I was hanging out with the family watching movies as hurricane Hillary was passing by OC with heavy rain and winds, when all of a sudden I got an alert in my apple watch from an app I’ve never heard/seen before, so it caught my attention right away and it was something like “brace yourself, earthquake with Ventura epicenter” type of alert, and as I was telling my fam about it we then started to feel the ground moving!

    That was an amazing to experience, having a heads up could make a big difference in the outcome of an earthquake. Thank you!
