## What is Epicenter?

Epicenter is real-time natural-hazard awareness: active wildfires, earthquakes, floods, severe storms, and local emergency activity, aggregated from official public sources and drawn on a live map, with detail pages that put every number in plain language.

SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING
• A live map of wildfires, earthquakes, floods, storms, and local emergencies
• Official sources: USGS earthquake feeds, NOAA/NWS weather and flood alerts, NIFC and satellite wildfire detections, and public emergency-dispatch feeds
• Wind, rainfall, and shaking context on every event

UNDERSTAND IT
• Comparisons that make the numbers real, hurricane winds raced against an F1 car, rainfall measured in bathtubs, quake energy in everyday terms
• Live incident timelines as new reports arrive
• Scanner radio for major incidents, where available

STAY INFORMED
• Push alerts when a significant event happens near you
• Location is optional and while-in-use only, the app works fully without it
• Share cards that carry the facts, built for messages

Epicenter is free, supported by a single unobtrusive ad on the home screen and event pages — never beside the most severe events, and never personalized. Epicenter Premium removes ads and unlocks additional local emergency detail. No account required. Epicenter shows what official sources report.

Epicenter Premium is an auto-renewing subscription: $4.99 per month or $49.99 per year (US; prices may vary by region and are always shown in the app before purchase). Payment is charged to your Apple Account, and the subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings.
