What is MyShake? Description of MyShake 2088 chars
MyShake is a comprehensive and free earthquake app offering these features:
Earthquake Early Warnings
Receive timely, potentially life-saving early warning alerts in California, Oregon and Washington. MyShake uses the USGS ShakeAlertTM system to deliver alerts for earthquakes of magnitude 4.5 (or greater) several seconds before shaking arrives.
Earthquake Safety
View safety tips for earthquake preparedness such as securing hazardous or moveable items and creating a disaster plan. Know what to do during an earthquake and learn more about Drop, Cover and Hold On!
Earthquake Map and Details
View and explore a map of earthquakes around the world and get detailed information such as earthquake magnitude, location and depth. Share your own experience of an earthquake and see community reports of shaking and damage.
Earthquake Notifications
Stay informed of earthquakes as they occur by receiving notifications on your phone. Select your regions of interest and the earthquake magnitude. You’ll never miss out on any earthquake greater than magnitude 3.5!
Smartphone-Based Global Seismic Network
Participate in a smartphone-based global seismic network. In this research project, your phone becomes a mini-seismometer and contributes to the detection of earthquakes wherever you are. This global citizen-science based seismic network has the potential to provide early warning earthquake alerts in every region of the world, even in the absence of traditional seismic networks!

MyShake Pros
✓ Worked perfectly yesterday!I recently downloaded this app when prepping an earthquake kit. Yesterday was tropical storm Hilary in SoCal and this app notified me a good 10 seconds before the earthquake hit and gave me enough time to get to safety and text a friend before I felt it. I received the “amber alert” on my phone from the city basically as the earthquake hit. This app gave me valuable time, and much sooner than the city/state was able to..Version: 3.1.12
✓ Worked as intendedThe app actually worked. I had forgotten that I installed the app. Tonight it sent me notification that there is an earthquake. Less than a minute later there was actually an earthquake. It sent another warning a few minutes later and about a minute after there was an after shock. Although 45-60 seconds doesn’t seem like much time but it provided enough information to quickly decide if I need to take cover or not..Version: 3.1.16
✓ MyShake Positive ReviewsMyShake Cons
✗ Completely missed the mark on Hollister 4.5 EQI’m really surprised that even though I’ve set MyShake to log 3.5 & higher, it entirely missed the 4.5 EQ near Hollister 2 days ago… the logging functionality seems to be getting worse and worse as time goes on… additionally, the notification feature appears to be very hit-or-miss; we received notification of an EQ in the Sierras more than 150 miles from here yet, closer EQs in the North Bay Area never seem to trigger the alert notification, even though I’ve correctly configured the app and allowed location/notification….Version: 3.1.10
✗ Feature Request: Ability to subscribe to locationI like the idea of this app but I think it can be greatly improved by offering the ability to subscribe to a location for alerts/reports. While it is interesting that there was an earthquake in Indonesia, I don’t want to receive alerts and pop-up’s for it. I mainly care if there is an earthquake happening EAE real-time in San Francisco and would like the feature to only get alerts for this area. It would be great if I can subscribe to alerts by selecting a city or be able to draw the boundary on a map. Thanks again for building this app and sharing the data. Keep up the awesome work!.Version: 3.0.106
