"

"Living in San Francisco, I've tried every seismic app out there, but this is the only one I trust for my family's safety. The 'Critical Alerts' feature is a game-changer—it bypasses my silent mode to give me the seconds I need to react. It’s fast, reliable, and the data is far more detailed than anything you'll see on the local news."

Sarah Jenkins, Homeowner
"

"The level of data transparency in this app is incredible. As a tech professional, I really appreciate the Apple Watch integration and the lack of intrusive ads. Being able to see tectonic plate layers and nuclear plant proximity alongside real-time USGS feeds gives me a 'prosumer' experience that other utility apps just can't match."
