- People monitoring earthquakes in Turkey and their families
- Worth noticing
- Family groups can include up to five people using a six-digit invitation code.
Field notes
The site describes a server-side pipeline that checks Kandilli and USGS records every 10 seconds, applies user-selected magnitude and distance filters, and sends matching events as push notifications. Its family feature uses six-digit invitations for groups of up to five people, with separate safe and help states; help requests may include location. The homepage also distinguishes ordinary alerts from an early-warning system and says it does not perform its own measurements.
