### 4/5 — 希望增加支持中文

*2025-06-19*

I hope to enhance the Chinese localization of the app to make it more comprehensive. This will help attract more users and better promote this excellent application.

### 1/5 — Instructions

*2020-08-06*

How can I get instructions on how to operate this app?  Can’t find a drop down menu or a way to seek help or send a message to anyone.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-05-27, version 2.1*

Portrait mode only for an iPad app is very poor. I tried to get the thing to show earthquakes and even changing the dates, I could not find a way to get them to show.

I spent a few minutes trying, but the amatuerish, 'low quality' feel discouraged me from bothering any further with it.

Deleted.

### 1/5 — Earthquake Update

*2018-12-05*

1.3 hours AFTER a 4.7 earthquake it was still not showing up in the app. No good for knowing real time events or at least within a reasonable amount of time.

### 2/5 — Add this feature please

*2014-12-20*

This is a nice app but what it really needs is the ability to utilize the iPhone accelerometer to detect earthquakes and automatically share that data to the cloud and/or the USGS. 

Only when enough similar readings are detected from a certain region within a narrow timeframe would the data be considered legitimate and then be pushed back out to the map for all users to view. 

The app could also be active only at certain times of the day/night that the user defines. As well as only be active when connected to pre-defined wifi networks. Such as Home or work. 

Another option would be to only take accelerometer reading when it is plugged into power (such as when on your night stand or connected to a computer USB). 

The app could also use the iPhone GPS to disable sensor reading when moving. As well as only record seismic data when the app detects the iPhone is laying flat on its back. 

Another option would be to disable the seismic sensor data output when a face is detected with the front facing camera. 

Requiring the app to be running in the foreground would also further prevent false readings. 

This could easily, quickly, and cheaply create a huge network of seismographs around the world.

### 3/5 — Should add a lot more features

*2011-05-08*

Should add a lot more features. This is just a map with dots. Also, make the map rotatable without walls.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2011-03-12, version 1.2*

Broken. Fix

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2011-03-12*

Repeatedly crashed on launch. Never did see it do anything!

### 1/5 — would'nt work iPhone 4

*2011-03-11, version 1.2*

downloaded and installed but opened as a black screen then just went to springboard screen on phone !!

### 1/5 — Crashes on startup

*2011-03-11, version 1.2*

I can't tell what this app is like, it crashes straight away.
