Don’t download 👎
Useless app without any correct updates. There’s was 6.5 earthquake yesterday in Humboldt county, CA. No alarm, literally nothing about it on the app.
Updates are terrible
This used to be great, it’s become so much less user friendly and a lot of features are missing. I got an alert this morning, now I can’t view it.
Used to work, now it’s trash
This app seemed decent until this week. My notifications settings are set to notify when 4.5+. So why have I been getting 0.9 warnings for 4 days? DO NOT DOWNLOAD unless they publish a statement explaining why and what they did to fix the trash.
One of the better apps in a long time
My old review below. Just had a 4.1 center a few miles away, the worst I have experienced in the app does not even recognize it. This app is now useless to me. Uninstalling!
Just installed it and 5 minutes later got my first alert, living in SoCal. Just discovered the alert setting, don't really care about shakes 250 miles away. Overall I think this app is a must have. Well done.

Notifications are reliable and timely
This one has consistently out performed Hawaii Civil Defense notification for us by about 45 minutes. Tsunamis, earthquakes, and hurricanes. Great app that works properly those rare times that we rely on it.
USA only? Inadequate.
This app formerly allowed me to monitor locations important to me in Canada and Mexico, but a recent update erased all my monitored locations and removed the ability to select locations outside the US. That is unfortunate, and is not an improvement. My inquiry was answered that the app never had the capability of monitoring outside the US, however, I had these locations saved, monitored, and received alerts for them for many years before they disappeared. I do not wish to malign the app, I simply want what was once a working function to be restored.

This app is useless
I never get an alert when I actually feel an earthquake and I subsequently read that it was 3.5 or higher. I sometimes do get alerts when I don’t feel a thing. My alert sensitivity is set for 3.0 or higher. The fact that there are so many FAQs about not getting alerts leads me to believe something is really broken with this app.

Unreliable.
Thanks to this app, I’ve never missed out on the piddly magnitude 2.1 earthquakes that plague me in Southern California. But when a nearly magnitude 5.0 struck, this app showed nothing. Not even for days afterward. I’m actively looking for a different app now.
DOES NOT WORK
This used to be a great app years ago. I live in LA so I’d get notifications all the time based on my settings and now it does even send notifications. I open the app and there are TEN earthquake warnings. Never received a pushed notification. I haven’t changed any settings. This app is garbage and has been for a while. What happened?

Version 3.12.0 DOES NOT WORK
The app lost or deleted my alerts!
And the map service that Red Cross uses is no longer sending updates, so the maps don't work.
This app is completely useless.

No longer fully functional
Lost mapping resource.
Fantastic use of technology
Provides clear, concise information and easily followed instructions. Uses language that gives a sense of empowerment and calm and is likely to minimize panic. Extremely useful information and planning tools. Thanks so much, Red Cross- as usual your disaster preparedness is phenomenal.
Earthquake app
Received notification 10 minutes after it happened. Needs to be sooner!
Late Notifications
Received the notifications of earthquakes here in PR more than 20 minutes after the shakes.
Stopped Working
This application stopped working.
App improvement
The alerts are up an hour late and some of them neither are registered through the app, this is in Puerto Rico.
Very late advice
I live in Puerto Rico, and lately there are many earthquakes happening. I got this app to get notifications every time the earth is shaking at the moment, but it doesn’t do that. An earthquake happened about 20 minutes ago, and NOW I’m receiving the earthquake notification. This app is A FAIL.
I thought it was more efficient because it’s from the American Red Cross, but it isn’t.

It’s not working when I most need it!
I live in Puerto Rico and there was an Earthquake of 8.0 this morning at 4am. I wake up and check my phone to see if any more happen before, after that I keep checking my phone to see where it happen. Half an hour later I get the notification, more happen after wards and I don’t get a notification of the location. About four hours later another Earthquakes hits, I check my phone and nothing and at the time I’m scared cause I don’t know where it was so I worry even more. 40 minutes later I get the notification of it. Last year I don’t remember exactly when, there was a small earthquake and I got the notification quickly and I was calm cause I could keep track of them. But today is Not a good day for the app to be failing at loading my location and saying there was a problem, It failed me at the worst time...

Late late warnings
We are receiving the warnings on the phone 30 minutes plus from when they happen. Goes “earthquake warning” yeah tell me some thing I don’t know. Why it takes so much time, don’t know but makes it useless.
Good, Not Perfect
I have had this App in use for at least a year. It offers many useful functions that can personalize its benefits.
One recent downside was noted: Monitoring zones and locations were reset after an update. So while it was only a minor inconvenience to re-establish them, it is something to be mindful of and periodically recheck that they are still in place and functioning.
