Ratings and Reviews
Helps a lot !!!
I have my children and grandchildren living in New Zealand. Needless to say that I am unwilling to wait for the media to report to me in Canada, if they have suffered a quake. This app alerts me to both location and severity of seismic activity way before media report it. Knowing for me is peace of mind. I recommend this app to anyone who needs to know and have at their fingertips accurate reliable information. App is currently experiencing technical issues such as not recognizing an internet connection when the app is first opened even though a strong connection exists. Simply restarting the app fixes the problem for that session. I sure hope the developers can fix this since it is annoying.
Only in New Zealand you say? Pity!
Subject tells it all.
Seems like a marvellous app, but is limited to New Zealand only. Pity!
