Great idea, poor execution

By CoolRegman (Pcmac user)

As a LA resident, this could be a must-have app. Sadly, it seems designed by individuals with no experience in even basic app design, or they do not do even the most basic beta testing, rendering it worse than useless because it just doesn’t provide alerts. After the recent set of earthquakes (where no one received alerts on the app), they revised the app. Still wont work: * If you click “provide feedback” in the support section of the app, it takes you to a USGS site that has interesting information but absolutely no place for feedback. This is a real gap in enabling feedback. The app needs to provide proper contact information. * If you travel, the app follows your location and only provides earthquake information for where you are physically located at that moment. We want to know information about where we live in SoCal all the time. Instead, we receive information about San Francisco, Washington DC, Dallas, Chicago, London, or wherever we are traveling. This makes the app useless. The app needs to be able to have a “home” setting. The solutions to both of these are very easy fixes, and would greatly improve the app’s utility.
A solid start

The first release is a beta version. Not bad. The only way to fully debug a real-time distributed system is to deploy it, and see how it works at large scale. There are millions of phones in LA County - there are bound to be snags, but they can’t be found until it’s tried. I’ve read other reviewers’ complaints: - it only works in LA County That’s where the sensors are, kids. Other local governments need to get with the program. - it tracks your location, and reports locally Makes sense. I want to know if *I* am going to feel an earthquake, where I am, right now. If I’m in Portland, and there’s an earthquake in LA, I’ll get the news, soon enough. LA sending notifications around the world is an unreasonable demand. My questions: - does it have anti-spoofing safeguards? If an alarm goes out, people are going to go completely ape. If it’s a false alarm, injuries may happen for no good reason. - will it override the audio on/off switch, just in case? I bump my switch all the time. - will it sound the alarm at max volume, no matter the present setting? A good warning system should wake the dead.
Not sure why people being so negative

This app is a great idea and I am glad to see it finally get released. I haven’t experienced any problems or crashing and it’s brand new so nobody can say much about its efficacy yet but I hope it succeeds one day to do what it was created to do; save lives. Los Angeles is the first city to have an earthquake early warning tool like this one. We all know there will be earthquakes in this city, maybe not today, but it will happen. There’s no good reason not to be as prepared as you can and this app is a good place to start. This app includes a few simple tools for earthquake preparation like checklists and helpful instructions about what to do during and after an earthquake.
Hoping for 5 Stars!

I just got this app hoping it works as advertised. I’d like to request an update based on the other reviews and descriptions that I’ve read. Part of the requirement for this app to work is that my phone must be located in LA county and location services must be Always On. Well I live in LA county with my family but my profession is a corporate pilot. I travel the world and I personally am not always in LA county but when there is a danger to my family, I want to know about it ASAP!! Case in point, this recent Searles Vally Quake. I’m currently in the UK and did not find out it was going on till 3.5 hrs later. It’s tough being away from home and I want to know about any potential danger at home as soon as possible. I don’t see why MY phone has to be in LA county for me to get the warnings. I’m sure there are many others that are in s similar situation. I want to know about all earthquakes in LA county weather I’m there or not! From the news feed I’ve seen, I also think the trigger threshold should be lowered. I you can feel it in LA County, I think I should get an alert as well. Thank you for your consideration!
