Latest reviews of Earthquakes app for iPhone and iPad
This app has a lot of potential. Some suggestions: Locate you and tell you close by Earthquakes World map that you can zoom in on. Like tilt sideways to view the map. Maybe a vibrate or message if an earthquake did happen near by but wasnt felt. Great app overall. 5 stars for price, potential, and a good start. Im looking forward to using this app a lot
This is a very east to understand, very easy to use program. Tapping on each one of the quakes takes you to a USGS web site (not really formatted for the iPhone) that shows you all of the other details about the quake. A lot of information is available on that site. My one complaint is that there is not a 1-click access to the iPhone maps app via this earthquake app. You CAN take the link to the USGS site, click the maps tab and the click the google maps link. This takes you to the location on your Maps app on the iPhone. (huh?) yes that makes little sense to me too. But I think the program is well worth a buck. Edit: Also. Add ability to filter to certain geographic areas. Add refresh button to update quakes. Adding a world map with pin points would be very cool.
I would like to have the ability to set this program to my area only. Living in the SF Bay Area, we get our fair share. Its not that I dont care about the rest of the world, but Id rather just have CA Earthquakes listed and there is no way to do that in this app. Will probably delete this and wait for something that can be set area specific. Its a nice start on something that *could* be a lot better.
This application never works. Always tells me USGS Host Not Available !!
Simple but good app. Does what it says in the description. So interesting to see how many Earthquakes appear around the world.
