GlobalAlert: Natural Disasters

Visualize listed earthquakes and other natural-event reports on a global map.

Our take

Useful for general awareness alongside official alerts

Search, grouped markers and detail pages help organize reported events.

Keep in mind: Live/comprehensive/maximum-accuracy claims are unverified; broad all-USGS attribution does not establish provenance for every event class. Not an emergency decision system.

What you can do

  • Event map with legend/plate boundaries
  • Search/filter, magnitude/depth/time details and stats
  • Local notifications, widgets and Watch views

Good for

  • People independently checking each event and source time

Consider alternatives for

  • Guaranteed hazard coverage or evacuation instructions

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 26.0.
  • Live/comprehensive/maximum-accuracy claims are unverified; broad all-USGS attribution does not establish provenance for every event class. Not an emergency decision system.

Privacy & permissions

Location/event interests and notifications can be sensitive; inspect data providers/permissions and follow official emergency channels.
