Atlantic Ocean Tsunami Alerter for Android
There is a higher probability of Tsunami in Atlantic similar to that of Dec 2004 Tsunami in Indian Ocean.On November 1,1755 - A Tsunami in Atlantic Ocean wiped out the entire city of Lisbon in Portugal!!And the Tsunami's in Atlantic ocean may also affect nearly the whole of US East Coast,Canada and Europe.Added to this there is a fault line which runs through the centre of Atlantic ocean and there has been not a major earthquake of over 7.5 in the last 90 years.So there is every possibility of a Tsunami in that region in future.
Each Tsunami alert notification would be accompanied by a siren sound and generally it would last for few seconds depending upon the category of alert.For highest alert,it would last for 15 seconds(7 seconds during daytime) and for other information bulletins the siren would last for 2 seconds.
Note:This app relies on PTWC Tsunami warnings for Caribbean sea.(Atlantic Ocean)
Now this app is not very active, which is a good thing. But when it is, it is the most accurate app! I received a notification about 3 months ago of an earthquake in the Mid Atlantic ridge that may have spawned a tsunami. When I checked it with another app, it had the same alert. This app works perfectly!
Could do with some setting to allow customisation of alert tones.
I keep getting a pop up box that says Tsunami alert activated but when I open the app it says there are no alerts
ALWAYS ON TIME WITH ALERTS.
Handy and helpful
I love it
Look-good
ok this a
Loaded perfectly on my G2X. Only problem is I just have to HOPE.... No way to test the system.... No way to test the siren.... etc. Maybe a once in a lifetime event at best, thus who knows if I'll even still have the app when/if it is needed.
Wakelock Detector is showing this app with a high number of screen wakelocks. Does it really need them?
Alert actually worked!! Updates data on set schedule. NEEDS MOVE 2SD PLS! -HTC EVO 4G
Works perfectly. Detailed alert warnings with great location map menu. 5star app.
I hope that this app will work if the time ever comes!
Never have been in a tsunami warning
Great app that gives you all info you need!
Force close on open, every time
