Leave a Review QuakeFeed Earthquake Tracker
Good App...
I like this app a lot and I have to say that the alert system works great. I was warned about the 7.1 mag quake that hit California before I saw anything on the news. I also like the exacting detail of each recorded quake and shock. Would be great if there was a map that showed dots for epicenters and perhaps clustering rings. With the GPS last and Kong’s that you already have, that should be an easy addition.
With clustering you could give early warnings in advance if the tremors show an outbreak or magnitude longer rising. That could help people get prepared in advance.
Great app but please add the global map with plots. Thanks for developing this.Show lessBigRapidsBean
Informational
It's an interesting app that helps to keep me informed on what the earth is doing. I have noticed that I often do not get an earthquake notice for about 30 minutes after it has occurred so you certainly don't want to rely on this app to save your life or give you real-time forewarning. It is useful though, especially if you pay close attention- you can see how an earthquake in one region will stimulate an earthquake in an almost opposite region. In this way, it can help you predict what may happen next.
Update: I liked the app much better before it was updated. Before, the map was a satellite image and I could zoom in and explore the topography of the ocean floor and such. Now it’s just a cartoon image. I still gets alerts but I use the app much less now because of the crumby map. And thanks for the adding the ads...
I upped my rating back to 5 stars for the developers quick and helpful response and showing me how to get my satellite image back. Thx:)Show lessbuttercupps4

Thanks for the 5-star rating, we were happy to help! :) :)Earthquake app
I have had this app for many years. It is amazing and I love it. It always hear about the earthquakes before they are on the news. The map shows exactly where it is. It also shows the ring of fire. And many other really great features. I have noticed that this last year has had far more greater earthquakes than I’ve seen in the last 10 years. I usually had it set at 6.0 and for years there have been very few really. And now they are happening on a weekly basis!Show lessNorthwestChickie
The Place For Quakes
Quakefeed is the answer to the question - was that just an earthquake ? I searched through many apps of this type and always came back to Quakefeed. It’s hands down the best. I showed it to a friend in Alaska where they have lots of activity and now they have it too and love it. Would be great if the developer came up with more apps since they have a knack for creating. I would definitely recommend everyone download this. One note - I set mine to only warn me about quakes over 5.0 because every single one in the world was a little too much for me to keep track of. Now I get notified only on the big ones 5 and over.Show lessNews Frenzy

Thank you for your review!Cool app. Not always accurate
I live in a state that gets a dozen or so earthquakes a year. The area had a huge one back in the 1800’s, so I always want to know what’s going on around us. I like to know about big ones around the world because they can impact such large areas. However, the app information isn’t always accurate and it sometimes lists the same earthquake multiple times because it is felt a long distance from the epicenter. But that is fairly easy to sort out and I would rather thank an 8.0 hit somewhere and find out it was really a 6.5 than to not know at all. In all, it’s a great app.Show lessBgdreyer
Best app out there
Love this app! I've tried a couple that were recommended by friends but was never completely happy with any of them. Once I found this app I shared it with everyone that used anything different. We are all happy. I have friends all over the world that I've met on Facebook. It's great to be able to know what's going down in their region. A few times I knew before they did! That was enough for them to make the
change to this app.Show lessSouthern and wide Awake
Must get this app! With one exeaption
This app is one to get because it gives great facts; the alerts are very accurate and is very precise. If you want to get the best feed on earth quakes this is the app for you. But their is one exception that I have to make. I live in the united state and I try to find the New Madrid seismic zone so I can see where it is located and see what states it goes through but I can't find it. It would be great if they could implement the new Madrid seismic zone so people can see where it is and what states it goes through. Over all this is a good app for anyone to use and it is a fun app to get so "Hurry up and get it" !Show lesscolebean99
Doesn't load notification settings
I downloaded this app and configured my alerts only to receive an alert for Mexico not even five minutes later. I don't live near Mexico and it was not a part of my alert settings that I configured. When I went back in to change the notification settings I received multiple errors saying the app couldn't connect to the notification server. I tried multiple times and when I did finally get in there was a new notification configured that I didn't set up. When I tried to delete it it said the same thing about not being able to connect to the notification server. The ads were unexpected to just show up after I clicked on something and pretty annoying to have to wait five seconds to get to what I clicked on. One extra star because I could limit my notification to only the state I live in. But ultimately this app doesn't work. And maybe given more than 10 minutes this app would work, but I had it set up and something happened to make it not work.Show lesscaitym10

It crashed on the last 3 iphones i had when no one could help me with the phone the o ly solution to them was buy a new so i did the most recent version and after all the trouble and misery of setting up the new device and at first with this beong the only downloaded application the ensure there would be no software conflict it still does the same thing crash and no one can tell me why when i got to the most recent version of the phone and it still crashed a service reprisentative had the nerve to tell me to buy a newer phone but there is not a newer version and 1.1 million die in china over the effects/pollution of making any " smart phone " among other products like those awful bluetooth speakers that sound like an old stereo from the 1970'sShow lessDmitriK1984
Simple & accurate
I've been using Quake Feed since it first appeared in the App Store. I am a geophysicist and have access to numerous earthquake notification systems but tend to look to this app the most. I love the push notifications and filter features. The only thing missing is the ability to use a different sound for quake notification. I could have sworn that was possible in an earlier version, may have been a different app., still like QuakeFeed the best.Show lessispragg
