Earthquake Alerts & Live Map

Earthquakes shows the latest earthquakes around the world the moment they are reported — with official data from the USGS, the EMSC and Türkiye's AFAD.

Whether you live near a fault line, have loved ones in a quake-prone area, or simply want to stay informed, Earthquakes keeps you a step ahead with real-time data, clear maps, and timely alerts — and now a whole toolbox for understanding earthquakes.

KEY FEATURES

• Real-time worldwide list from the USGS, EMSC and AFAD. Your country is detected automatically on launch.
• Smart alerts: get notified when an earthquake passes the magnitude you choose.
• Near Me: earthquakes around your location, sorted by distance, with an adjustable radius.
• Powerful filters by country, magnitude, and time. If the last 24 hours were quiet, the list widens on its own.
• Full details for every event: magnitude, depth, exact time, an interactive map, ShakeMap shaking, felt reports, and PAGER impact.
• Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, and earthquake cards you can share in seconds.
• Works offline — earthquakes you have loaded stay available without a connection.

NEW: TOOLS

• Fault Map: the active faults in your country, and how far the nearest mapped fault is from you.
• Historical Earthquakes: more than 2,400 great earthquakes from 2150 BC to today, with deaths, damage, and tsunamis.
• Volcanoes, Orogens, and Nuclear Power Plants maps, each opening on your country.
• Magnitude Comparator: see why an M7 releases about 32 times the energy of an M6.
• Rupture Size: how long a fault breaks in an earthquake, drawn to scale over your own city.
• Intensity Scale and Shake Simulator: what each level of shaking feels like — and feel it through your phone.
• Home Safety Check, Be Prepared, Emergency Mode (whistle and flashing light), and I'm Safe.
• Statistics: charts for the earthquakes in your list.

GEOLOGY ON EVERY MAP

• Fault lines, plate boundaries colored by type (convergent, divergent, transform), and plate names.
• Orogens, volcanoes, and nuclear power plants as layers — on the earthquake details map too.

FOR EVERYONE

• 26 languages with an in-app language switcher.
• Light, dark, and system themes.
• A clean, modern, distraction-free design.

PRIVATE & FREE

• Completely free to download and use.
• No sign-up or account required.
• Location is used only for Near Me and distances, and only if you allow it.

Earthquake data: USGS, EMSC and AFAD. Faults: GEM. Volcanoes and historical earthquakes: NOAA.

Please note: alerts arrive after an earthquake has been reported by the agencies — this is not an early-warning system. This app is an informational tool and not a substitute for official emergency alerts.
