Explore recent earthquakes on an interactive map, browse detailed earthquake information, search for locations, and customize the geographic area and magnitude criteria that matter to you.
🌍 Monitor earthquakes worldwide
View recent earthquake activity from around the world in a clear list and on an interactive map. Quickly understand where earthquakes are occurring and explore their geographic distribution.
🗺️ Interactive earthquake map
Explore earthquake locations visually with an interactive map. Switch between available map views, zoom and pan across regions, and select individual earthquakes to view their details.
📍 Search for a city or country
Search for a city or country and explore earthquake activity around the selected location. Choose the search area that fits your needs, from a local radius to worldwide coverage.
📊 Smart filters
Customize the earthquake information you want to see using filters such as:
• Magnitude

• Time period
Focus on the earthquakes that are most relevant to you without losing access to global seismic activity.
🔔 Earthquake alerts
QuakeWatch can periodically check the latest USGS earthquake data in the background and notify you when an earthquake meets the configured alert criteria.
Background checks are subject to Android's background execution and notification policies, so notification delivery may vary depending on device and system conditions.
📱 Designed for everyday monitoring
QuakeWatch is designed to make seismic information easy to explore, whether you want a quick overview of worldwide activity or want to investigate earthquakes near a particular location.
🎁 Rewarded credits
QuakeWatch includes a credit system for location searches. When available, users can optionally watch a rewarded advertisement to earn an additional search credit.
🔐 Privacy-conscious design
Location access is used locally on your device for proximity-related features. QuakeWatch does not explicitly send your device's GPS coordinates to its earthquake data service.
The app uses Google Mobile Ads and Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) for advertising and consent management. Advertising and consent-related data may be processed according to Google's policies and your choices.
🌐 Data sources
