If you live in an earthquake‑prone climate, you might be interested in a tool to help monitor them. QuakeInfo is a long‑standing app on the App Store, recently updated with a Liquid Glass design and new features.

Top features

• Global seismic data – pulls information from both US and European databases, covering earthquakes worldwide.
• Map‑first interface – the map view is front‑and‑center, providing a clear visual of seismic activity.
• Comprehensive list view – shows each earthquake’s timing, magnitude, location, depth, distance from you, and proximity to populated areas.
• Tsunami warnings – alerts for potential tsunami events.
• Location‑based safety alerts – gives contextual safety warnings based on your current position.
• Historical data – scroll through up to a year of past earthquakes, with details like magnitude and depth for pattern analysis.

QuakeInfo provides location‑based safety warnings, spatial context, and detailed metadata on each individual earthquake – so you know what’s coming before it potentially hits you.
