This is definitely one of the better earthquake-orientated apps that I’ve come across in the Weather category of the App Store in recent months, and I’m very pleased with what the developer has done overall.

The interface looks great and everything seems to run quite smoothly, making it a very handy tool to have at your disposal if you need to stay on the lookout for incoming quakes.

The map also contains individual hotspots that you can tap to see reports of individual earthquakes, and all quakes can be replayed in the order they occurred to uncover greater insights.
