User reviews

It used to be trustworthy.

I would give it a 5, but during the last tsunami warning, the app falsely gave the all clear for about half an hour, even though on tsunami.gov the warning was still in effect. The app came back up with the warnings again after about 30 minutes or so. In that 30 minutes we decided not to evacuate. Luckily the tsunami was still way out at sea, and several hours until it would make landfall. We ended up evacuating. This was my most trusted app, and now I’m not so sure.

Wonderful Resource

In emergency management we always tell people to have multiple ways to get credible information and alerts. So glad this resource exists to have tsunami information in the palm of my hands.

Push notifications need to be changed

Please allow control over the types of notifications. I see many other users asking for the same thing!

I would like to mute or disable push notifications for earthquake events that do not pose a threat.

Push notifications should be reserved for warning about **legitimate tsunami danger** (otherwise the user will disengage from the constant pop-ups, which defeats the purpose of the app!)

If this can be implemented, it would be a five-star app!
