About this app

Developer Description

Get earthquake early warning alerts in California, Oregon and Washington!

MyShake is a comprehensive and free earthquake app offering these features:

Earthquake Early Warning
Receive timely, potentially life-saving early warning alerts in California, Oregon and Washington. MyShake uses the USGS ShakeAlert system to deliver alerts for earthquakes of magnitude 4.5 (or greater) several seconds before shaking arrives.

Earthquake Safety
View safety tips for earthquake preparedness such as securing hazardous or moveable items and creating a disaster plan. Know what to do during an earthquake and learn more about Drop, Cover and Hold On!

Earthquake Map
View and explore a map of earthquakes around the world and get detailed information such as earthquake magnitude, location and depth. Share your own experience of an earthquake and see community reports of shaking and damage.

Earthquake Notification
Stay informed of earthquakes as they occur by receiving notifications on your phone. Select your regions of interest and the earthquake magnitude. You’ll never miss out on any earthquake greater than magnitude 3.5!

Smartphone-Based Global Seismic Network
Participate in a smartphone-based global seismic network. In this research project, your phone becomes a mini-seismometer and contributes to the detection of earthquakes wherever you are. This global citizen-science based seismic network has the potential to provide early warning earthquake alerts in every region of the world, even in the absence of traditional seismic networks!

This is a great app. I really appreciate the early warning it provides. I discovered a problem with it with the quake this morning (9/12/24), though. I had Do Not Disturb set on my phone, and the alarm didn't sound. I have changed app notifications to allow this in the future, but I feel that as an emergency alert, the app should override Do Not Disturb, regardless of app settings. At the very least, the app should let the user know to adjust notifications settings at time of installation.

I love this app; so far, it has worked well for me (though there haven't been many quakes >4.0 lately). The only thing keeping me from giving five stars is that the app has been closing abruptly when it should be running in the background. It IS supposed to run in the background, isn't it? It's not much good for warnings, otherwise. It's not a power saving setting, I have that turned off. Any help would be great. Thanks.

It would be nice if tbe graph would also show a number maybe at the top in addition to the line? Also wish the recording option could be changed, as one minute is not very long. I appreciate that this app is free. There are apps out there that feel like they are more sensitive (like vibration meter), but those can be expensive so I'll continue to use this one until I find something better.

interesting, but difficult to use. I couldn't find a way to silence the worldwide notifications during my sleeping hours, so I uninstalled it. (Cost outweighed benefit)

it'd be great if I could use your app. but where the terms & service agreement is, the "agree" button is so low that it's in the way of the phones "home, back" buttons, so when I go to "agree" my phone goes to my home page. idk about iPhones but all androids are like this. You guys may want to fix that page. thanks so much.
