LastQuake

LastQuake helps users who live in seismic zones or travel frequently stay informed minutes after an event. It combines scientific monitoring with eyewitness input to show what happened, where it occurred, and how strongly people felt it. Because it is the official app from EMSC seismologists, the information focuses on clarity and speed. If you plan to download LastQuake, the app keeps the interface simple so alerts and impact details are easy to follow.

LastQuake features

Real time alerts you control

LastQuake lets you set a minimum magnitude and a maximum distance so you only receive alerts that matter to you. You can enable near me alerts for events close to your location and turn on voice notifications for hands free updates. The notification sound can be tested and customized to suit noisy or quiet environments, helping you react quickly without distraction.

Live views that fit your style

You can follow activity on a dynamic world map or switch to a continuously updated list of events. Choose which view opens first to match your daily routine, then tap any quake for location, depth, and early impact context. Important events can be saved for quick access later, which keeps your recent history close at hand.

Fast search with precise filters

When you need to find a past event, search by date range, magnitude band, or geographic region. Filters can be combined to focus on a specific country, sea, or fault zone and to hide small events outside your interest. This focused approach helps you monitor activity in areas that matter to you without scrolling through long lists.

Community impact reporting with translation

After a quake, you can share what you felt and saw through short comments, photos, or videos. Automatic translation helps your testimony reach users who speak other languages, which improves understanding across regions. These citizen reports help EMSC assess real world impact in the first minutes and provide context that pure sensor data cannot capture.

Safety tools and trusted global coverage

When an event occurs near you, the app provides practical safety tips that appear in context. Safety Check lets you send an SMS to reassure family and friends with minimal delay, and the app also shows indicative tsunami information provided by official sources. As the ad free official app from the Euro-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC-CSEM), LastQuake offers worldwide coverage and supports more than forty languages to assist users everywhere.

Set up LastQuake for your needs

Before relying on alerts, take a moment to tailor the app to your routine. Adjust the minimum magnitude and maximum distance so you are not flooded with minor events, then test the notification sound and consider enabling voice alerts if you often keep your phone in a pocket or bag. You can also pick the default landing page, map or list, and use Safety Check with SMS to quickly inform contacts after a nearby event.

• Disable battery optimization for LastQuake so alerts are not delayed when the phone sleeps.
