Over three years ago, we set out to develop the absolute best earthquake app available for the iPhone. We looked at all of the available earthquake apps and quickly discovered that none of them presented historical earthquake information. Most showed only a few days of data with limited mapping or filtering options. We went to work. Soon after launch of the app, a magnitude 7 earthquake devastated Haiti.
Today, if you want to look at the initial Haiti earthquake event and subsequent aftershocks on an iPhone or iPad, Earthquake Alerts is absolutely your best answer. Its also the ONLY WAY TO SEE the initial M8.8 CHILE EARTHQUAKE and its HUNDREDS of subsequent aftershocks on an iPhone. The Japanese earthquakes that caused the March 11th 2013 tsunami that badly damaged the Fukushima nuclear plant are also available.
Earthquake Alerts uses pinpoints nearly a million earthquakes worldwide. More than 30 years of historical earthquake information is now available in the palm of your hand. Other earthquake apps show only 7 days of data... Why not see the whole picture?
