About Volcanoes & Earthquakes
Volcanoes & Earthquakes shows the latest world-wide earthquakes (or only quakes near you), as well as earthquake "I-felt-it" reports, in near real-time and active volcanoes on a map and as list, as well as volcano news from all the world.
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.
!*****! Write a nice 5-star review to keep the developer motivated to continue working on this app;-)

No earthquakes or volcanos in the continental US are shown. This is a big problem, mainly if one lives near a volcano. The FAQs state ouright that there are no active volcanos in the continental US. This is NOT TRUE. According to the USGS data (on their website), there are a number of volcanos in the US now currently active, yet not shown on this app. Mt. Saint Helens, Mt. Rainier, Mt. Hood, Yosemite caldera, Mommouth Mountain, among others, are active in outgassing, as well as >3.0 Magnitude quakes.

Volcanos and Earthquakes are the most devastating natrual disasters that exist. Not having the USGS would be irresponsible. If you live near a fault or volcano you should if not have this app then some way to inform you of upcoming or current geological disasters.

It is good app .you are giving good information and you have to provide the alerts and earth quake updates also the users it is very helpful and save the human lives .you have to improve the app and add more features in it .Immediately rectify the mistakes and In future don't repeat it again.

Don't even think about downloading, just do it. Thoroughly informative app. I spent at least 20 minutes a day perusing the site. Best app I've ever come across. I'm amazed it's free. Though I have upgraded what only cost a couple of quid. One off payment what thoroughly recommend. A big well done to the guys who made this. If your into anything sizemological it's a must have. I heard about this app on YouTube. A channel called. Dutchsinse he covers earthquakes and volcanoes extremely well

Missing the earthquake we had today. Missing equakes in Montana and Yellowstone and Oklahoma and Ohio. Zooming in does not show smaller quakes. Please show ALL quakes for a 5* rating.

Takes your money for the pro version, but never fixes any bugs. Still only alerts if you set it to World. I just want 500 miles in Southern California but never get any alerts then.

Good app. It shows earthquakes that other websites don't show. They also show up sooner. There is always room for improvement. Like showing all of the United States fault line's.

I have found USGS does not list call quakes. Also there seened to be a quiet time before the Solomon Islands quake. This app is excellent. So I edited this review. Everything after this sentence can be ignored.I find this very helpful but would like better coverage of the West coast of US. Listing the depth of a 4.0 and above is very helpful.

This app could save lives. It also can help people find world info about family's stuck in epicentre areas. Great for visual tectonic movement, volcano ash advice when flying and up-to-date data with push notifications. Nice feature to add your own "felt it reports".
