User Reviews

Users generally value MyShake for its early warnings and safety benefits, with reports of alerts arriving seconds before shaking. However, recurring issues include false/distant alerts, lack of threshold controls, overly loud alarms, inconsistent reliability across devices, and inaccuracies in local event data. These concerns limit trust and usefulness, indicating a need for improved accuracy, configurability, and notification management.

Pros

Provides early warnings with seconds of lead time before shaking
Can be life-saving by giving time to take protective actions
Free to use, a readily available safety tool
Particularly useful in earthquake-prone regions (e.g., California)

Cons

Frequent false or distant alerts that wake users unnecessarily
No user controls to set minimum magnitude or alert sensitivity
Alerts can be very loud and disruptive, waking users in the middle of the night
Reliability is inconsistent across devices; some users don’t receive alerts
Inaccurate local information (epicenter/distance) or non-local alerts

I just exp the 2nd time this app notified me about an earthquake. Last time I got a Notification just seconds before the earthquake! This time, I received one about a minute after. I have both MyShake and QuakeFeed. MyShake is dependable, and QuakeFeed is for information. I’m very satisfied with MyShake app!
