Natural calamities come suddenly, and they strike in a fraction of seconds. Recently, Nepal faced strong earthquake with 7.5 magnitudes; we’ve seen a lot of people lost their lives, loved ones and some people badly injured. A continues movement of tectonic plates beneath the surface of the Earth is the main reason behind earthquakes. Science is so much developed, and scientists can at least predict where it can likely to happen.
Some countries have warning systems, for example, Japan developed a national alert system in 2007 to detect tremors and alert people. In other regions of the world alert systems are not available. Now the technology has so much advanced and we can get earthquake alerts before they strike. We can’t stop the earthquake, but we can save people lives by a small alert. There are few apps available for Android users to alert about earthquakes.

The app has tabs to feature latest quakes list, map section to show the most recent quakes with a high magnitude and Earthquake news around the world.
