Pros and cons of Epicenter app for iPhone and iPad
Epicenter app good for
This a great app, especially if you have family in an earthquake zone and want to keep up with activity. I do agree with the previous review, that it could benefit from more past data... But all-in-all great for keeping up to date on recent data.
One of the most and simple and easy to use earthquake tracking apps out there. Its very simple while still giving plenty of detail. I love the color intensity scale and specfic details given about the earthquake. An update would be nice with better graphics for the iPhone 4 retina display, and an iPad app would be a great addition. Thanks alot.
