Earthquake Network

Earthquake Network displays seismic reports and offers smartphone-network earthquake alerts.

Our take

Consider only as a supplementary alert source

Seismic-network data and user reports provide different views of events.

Keep in mind: Early warning depends on detection, distance, network and delivery time; it cannot guarantee advance notice or predict earthquakes. Priority lists change delivery order rather than establish protection.

What you can do

  • View available seismic-network data
  • Read user-felt reports
  • Configure eligible alerts and optional priority service

Good for

  • Users supplementing official earthquake information

Consider alternatives for

  • Users expecting guaranteed warning seconds or earthquake prediction

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 15.0.
  • Early warning depends on detection, distance, network and delivery time; it cannot guarantee advance notice or predict earthquakes. Priority lists change delivery order rather than establish protection.

Privacy & permissions

Location and device-sensor participation can reveal whereabouts; inspect what monitoring and alert settings transmit.
