Description

Volcanoes & Earthquakes shows the latest earthquakes and active volcanoes on a map and as list. You can filter the data shown in various ways, e.g. by magnitude or age of earthquakes, the distance from your location, the status of volcanoes and so on. The original earthquake / volcano data can be found with more detail on www.volcanodiscovery.com. Earthquake data are continuously being collected and updated from multiple sources. Features - Latest earthquakes as list and map - Detail earthquake information - Earthquake and volcano alerts - Custom alerts for quakes near user-defined locations - Alerts for quakes you possibly felt near your location - See currently erupting volcanoes on a map - Complete volcano lists by name / country / activity level - Get most recent volcano news - Volcanic Ash Advisories (VAAC) for fast lookup of ongoing / new volcanic eruptions with ash emission - Recent earthquakes worldwide for up to 7 days (incl. magnitudes 1.5 or higher for many regions) - Earthquakes near active volcanoes - Plate boundaries on map (optional) - Multiple data sources (more than 25 national and international agencies) - Filter earthquakes according to magnitude, age and distance - Earthquakes over magnitude 6 for the past year - Submit / read experience reports ("I-felt-an-earthquake") (if an earthquake near your location could have been strong enough to be felt) - Show "I-felt-an-earthquake" reports on map along with quake - Detail information about each earthquake in list - Smallest data format to save bandwidth - Offline access with cached data

    I have liked this app for the past few years and suddenly in the past couple months it doesn't update for a day or two. Now, in the past few weeks ever since I "had" to update my iPhone, this app constantly asks if I want to allow it to cut and paste from Telegram. I think I'm going to try the website and ditch the app. Sorry.
  • Fagradalsfjall eruption ended

    The eruption at Fagradalsfjall ended months ago, yet the app still says “erupting.” (The website says green).

    There is something seriously wrong with this app! It just keeps asking to copy and paste my notes. I cannot access it because I will not give it that permission. I’m going to wait a day and see if the developer contacts me, otherwise, I’m deleting it.
  • Very good

    12/18/22. I love this app a lot, right now there is a problem, when I open up or shall I say read data it’s shaking, like when the information was put on the app, the ground was moving ! I mean the data that was written is shaking
  • Not worth it

    The app is buggy and doesn’t really load well, it also opens different pages of the app for no reason quite frequently. The information from the free version is very limited, as you’re only able to see quakes of 3.0 or higher unless you pay them like $5.

    despite the slightly dated interface it is very functional and fast. useful for verifying that an earthquake happened when I feel it
  • Don't buy

    By njshore beach buddy
    I found that the free side is just as informative as the purchased side of the app. Not worth the 5 dollars. I thought more availability and more settings would be on purchased side. Very disappointed. Free side is great. 3 stars just due to feeling like I was ripped off.
  • Great app for anyone interested in volcanoes

    The live updates from this app are great and they sometimes give a more in depth explanation of an eruption whenever the data permits it. However, the app performance itself is a bit buggy at times. It lags a lot if you use the map feature for too long. Live updates sometimes don’t show up, forcing a deletion and re-download in order to get it working again. I’ve also noticed that there are no live updates being given on the currently erupting volcano in Iceland. You have to go to the main website itself for that. Hopefully an app update is sent out soon to fix all these issues, and this app will be even better.
