## What is Wake up! Earthquake LITE?

This app is intended for entertainment purposes only and DOES NOT provide true earthquake seismograph functionality.

Wake up Earthquake has been developed to provide an earthquake alarm.
It is possible to detect a very small earthquake through the official feeds like USGS and EMSC.
Wake up Earthquake warns you in case of an earthquake and allows you to rescue you and your loved ones.
Now you can sleep with peace of mind, sure to be alerted in case of any earthquake!

NOW you can activate the alarm just put your phone horizontally on the table!

There are 3 types of alarms:
- Audio: Can be played 3 different types of audio alarm.
- Visual: Can be displayed on the screen a text message.
- Flash LED: If available, the flash LED warning through the blinking. You can keep on after an alarm.
- E-mail: With this feature you will be able to send an e-mail when an alarm occur.

The application now continues to detect earthquakes even in standby mode.
In this mode you can also lock the device and you will be notified via audible alarm or notification.
You can activate the power saving mode to reduce power consumption of the battery.

Now you can enable and disable the alarm at a particular time of the day.

EARTHQUAKES IN THE WORLD:
This section allows you to see the seismic activity around the world. It is connected with the USGS and EMSC database to always retrieve the most current data.
For all earthquakes it is possible to see when the event occurred in your timezone and the event's timezone and also the UTC timezone.
It is interesting to see how far away the earthquake was. 
You can see all earthquakes sorted by magnitude, date, distance or depth.
It is possible filter the events for showing only the most significant earthquakes.


We are sure that Wake up Earthquake will be very useful especially where earth movement activity is a frequent problem.

For any information, suggestions or reports, please contact us.

### 5/5 — Ottima app.

*2023-10-22, version 2.2.11*

Semplice, efficace, professionale!

### 1/5 — Țeapă

*2023-02-14, version 2.2.11*

Am cumpărat programul (10 lei), nu funcționează decat dupa 2 ore de la seism…

### 1/5 — BU UYGULAMA NE HALTA YARIYO

*2022-01-05, version 2.1.2*

Hiç rezalet güvenip beklemeyin sizi uyarır diye çok beklersiniz

### 1/5 — Non serve

*2020-12-30, version 2.1.2*

App inutile basta che scuoti il telefono e il sismografo impazzisce come se fosse un terremoto rifate L’app e meglio non cosi

### 5/5 — Very nice but only a lit : (

*2020-07-26, version 2.1.2*

This would be very nice if you would make it free. Or at least with a little less functionality that the paid version. Anyways nice app

### 1/5 — Versione gratuita inutile

*2019-12-16, version 2.1.2*

La versione gratuita non permette di fare nulla.

### 1/5 — Proprio no.

*2019-11-26, version 2.1.2*

Al di là del fatto che è umanamente assurdo per me far pagare un servizio che potrebbe salvare delle vite,l’allarme quando suona ti fa prendere davvero un colpo ed impanicare, si poteva scegliere un altro tono. E poi se l’app non è aperta non funziona. Non ci siamo prp...

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2019-02-18*

It’s really good for waking up your kids

### 4/5 — A useful tool that gives you time to get to safety.

*2018-11-30, version 2.1.2*

I bought this app way back in 2015 / 2016 to firstly monitor vibrations on a variety of things, along with another, app that allowed me to see the accelerometer output data.  

However in late November 2016, I visited New Zealand, during the time just after the major earthquake struck and whilst the earth quakes we encountered were not life threatening, it triggered an alarm every time the vibration was high enough to cross the defined line of sensitivity awareness.  

The main disadvantage of this app, is in how you set the sensitivity, I was running a second seismic recording device in the background to record the level of the vibration.  
It’s not measured in the Richter (probably mis-spelt) scale, but on a scale of 5 to 100 (I just double checked it’s the same in the latest version), which I struggled before performing comparison tests to set it by shaking the device.  It would be super useful to have that feature. 

But on a positive, you get via a internet connection, information on seismic events in the world and lots of options.  

So well worth buying, if you are traveling abroad and are going to earthquake regions.
