Epicentral 4+

I've had this app for years and check it daily. However the newest upgrade version is definitely a downgrade. It's slower to load and sometimes doesn't load at all. They've tried to increase the amount of data you can retrieve but instead it makes the app less effective. Can we just have 2 options now? the Past Week OR The Past Month.
I only need the info on the Past Week as I check it daily

This is a nice app but what it really needs is the ability to utilize the iPhone accelerometer to detect earthquakes and automatically share that data to the cloud and/or the USGS.

Only when enough similar readings are detected from a certain region within a narrow timeframe would the data be considered legitimate and then be pushed back out to the map for all users to view.

The app could also be active only at certain times of the day/night that the user defines. As well as only be active when connected to pre-defined wifi networks. Such as Home or work.

Another option would be to only take accelerometer reading when it is plugged into power (such as when on your night stand or connected to a computer USB).

The app could also use the iPhone GPS to disable sensor reading when moving. As well as only record seismic data when the app detects the iPhone is laying flat on its back.

Another option would be to disable the seismic sensor data output when a face is detected with the front facing camera.

Requiring the app to be running in the foreground would also further prevent false readings.

This could easily, quickly, and cheaply create a huge network of seismographs around the world.

This is one of those rare "simple but effective" apps that combines creative presentation with substantial information to give users what they want to know quickly and efficiently. The graphical weekly summary shown when the phone is in landscape mode is clever; the ability to narrow the gepgraphic scope by simply touching on the map is natural and neatly implemented. Other developers might well learn a trick or two by carefully analyzing how well this app is designed. In short, well done!
