### 4/5 — Critical Alerts Sound

*2025-04-12*

Thank you for enabling critical alerts. I tested it both with the phone in silent mode and with sound on, but there was no sound in either case. This issue was also occurring before the last version update—do you know if this is a known issue?

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback, Silviu!

Starting from version 3.4 (released on April 10), critical alerts functionality has been implemented and is currently in the testing phase. At this moment, alerts are triggered for earthquakes with a magnitude of 5.0 or higher, and they bypass silent and focus modes to ensure maximum visibility. Your input played a key role in making this happen - we truly appreciate it!

### 4/5 — Critical Alerts Functionality Needed

*2025-03-30*

Please enable critical alerts to bypass silent and focus modes, ensuring maximum volume. Prioritize near-instant reporting—delays of even a few seconds are a matter of life & death. We need information in under 30 seconds. Good job on the application.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback, Silviu!
We completely agree - enabling critical alerts and minimizing delay is our top priority. We’re actively working on this functionality, and both the critical alert support and improved timing will be part of the next release. Your input is incredibly valuable in helping us improve. Stay tuned!

### 5/5 — Useful

*2024-11-25*

Very useful app, especially for the folks who live on the West coast lol since we’ve got a lot of random earthquakes throughout the year. Now you can be prepared. Thanks a lot !

### 4/5 — Earthquake app

*2024-03-13*

A great idea this app. It prepares one to think.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! We’re thrilled to know that QuakeMate inspires meaningful reflection and preparedness. Your support encourages us to keep enhancing the app for our users!

QuakeMate Team 😊.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 4.1.8 — 2026-08-11

• Fixed a Premium paywall that could get stuck when opened from an earthquake's full-screen map — it now closes properly, and opening it no longer dismisses the map behind it.

Thanks for using QuakeMate — keep the feedback coming!

### 4.1.7 — 2026-08-04

• The Now tab now updates instantly when you switch between Worldwide and Near me.
• Fixed a rare issue where the Now panel could get stuck refreshing after reopening the app.
• Map layer filters and the list now stay in sync — turning off Quakes, Volcanoes, Tsunamis or Felt hides its chip too.

Thanks for using QuakeMate — keep the feedback coming!

### 4.1.6 — 2026-07-28

Tectonic plate pages now tell the full story.

- Plates that run through several countries show them all: the countries sitting on the plate, plus a new "Along its edges" list for neighbours on its boundary - where most earthquakes actually happen.
- Small polish and fixes throughout.

### 4.1.5 — 2026-07-26

Sharper sharing, richer filters, real impact data.

SHARE COMPOSER
- Card options live in one tidy menu: details position, minimap with epicenter pin, big country flag, bigger text, and an Impact line showing how many people felt the shaking (USGS PAGER).
- Everything works on photo AND video cards, and the preview updates live.

MAP
- New Felt list plus two new filters: felt reports only, and depth (shallow, intermediate, deep).

EARTHQUAKE SCREEN
- The impact alert now shows the population exposed to each shaking level, straight from USGS PAGER.
- New bell button: create an alert for the area right from any earthquake.
- Nearby cities and areas are back.

FIXES
- "Near me" on the Now tab sticks and no longer slips back to worldwide events.
- Tectonic plate pages list the countries along smaller plates.
- No more stray straight lines on shared map cards.

### 4.1.4 — 2026-07-23

News that follows the places you care about.

- New "Alert areas": one News feed covering your saved alert zones - the places you already watch for quakes, right down to each zone's area.
- New "Near me": stories from around where you are right now.

Pick a scope from the top of the News tab. "Worldwide" still shows everything.
