Frequently asked

How is my earthquake risk calculated?

We look up real records for your exact spot: the largest earthquakes near you from the USGS catalog, how many quakes happen each year within a few hundred kilometres, tsunamis on record from the NOAA database, and nearby volcanoes from the Smithsonian program. Nothing is guessed - each figure comes from an official source.

Does a quiet result mean I am safe?

Not necessarily. Many damaging earthquakes strike places that were quiet for decades or centuries. A low recent rate is good news, but the only real protection is a warning the moment the ground moves - which is exactly what the app gives you.

How do I get warned before an earthquake near me?

Download the free QuakeMate app for iOS. It watches your location and sends a real-time push the instant a quake strikes nearby, plus tsunami and volcano alerts, with custom magnitude and distance rules so you only hear about what matters.

Is my location stored?

No. Your location is used only to look up the hazard record for that spot and is not saved.
