QuakeSense helps you explore recently reported earthquakes on an interactive map and monitor the places that matter to you using USGS data. SEE RECENT EARTHQUAKES • View USGS-reported earthquakes on a worldwide map • Switch between nearby and worldwide activity • Filter by magnitude and by the past hour, 24 hours, or 7 days • Use color- and size-coded map markers to scan activity quickly UNDERSTAND EACH EVENT • Check magnitude, location, time, depth, and distance from your location • Inspect the epicenter on the map • Open the official USGS event page or Maps • Share an earthquake report with others MONITOR SAVED PLACES • Add places such as home, work, or travel destinations • Choose a minimum magnitude and distance radius for each place • Check recent matches against the latest 24-hour USGS feed • Receive local notifications for newly matched events when QuakeSense refreshes earthquake data and notification permission is enabled PRIVACY AND DATA Location access is optional and used to calculate distance and evaluate proximity rules. Saved place rules are stored on your device. No account is required, and the app does not include ads. DATA SOURCE AND SAFETY Earthquake information is provided by the United States Geological Survey (USGS). Report availability and place names depend on the public USGS feed. QuakeSense monitors reported earthquakes. It does not predict earthquakes and is not an emergency alert service. Always follow official local authorities for safety guidance.
Rumble

Rumble is a beautiful, dark way to follow earthquakes as they happen -- anywhere on Earth. GET ALERTED Turn on notifications for quakes near you -- you choose how close and how strong. Or set a worldwide magnitude threshold and never miss a major one, wherever it strikes. Alerts are optional and fully under your control. SEE IT LIVE Every quake from the global USGS feed, updated continuously on a clean, fast map. Tap any quake for its magnitude, depth, and distance from you. KEEP AN EYE OUT Add a home-screen widget to keep the latest quakes in view without opening the app. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-up, no tracking. Rumble uses only your approximate location -- and only when you turn on nearby alerts. Powered by real-time data from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Note: Rumble reports earthquakes after they're detected and published by seismic networks and is not an early-warning system.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Rumble at Free against QuakeSense Earthquake Map's $2.99. Rumble also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 weeks). QuakeSense Earthquake Map's advantage is iOS requirement (18.6 vs 26.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
