How To Use the Quake List
The Quake List displays all of the earthquakes in a data feed (USGS, EMSC, or NRC), filtered by your Search and/or Filter settings, and sorted by your Sort settings.
The main sections of the Quake List are:
- Navigation Bar (top of screen)
- Earthquake List
- Wildfire List
- Tool Bar (bottom of screen)
NOTE: The Quake List is NOT your Earthquake Alerts. Alerts are configured on the Alert Settings screen.

Use the Search box to search and filter either the Earthquake List or the Wildfire List. The search will also be applied to the Quake Map. To cancel a search, tap the x or Cancel that appears in the right side of the search box or simply delete the text. |
The header displays the data feed (USGS, EMSC, or NRC), how many earthquakes or wildfires are displayed, and when the data was last updated. Tap the Earthquake or Wildfire heading to switch between the Earthquake List and Wildfire List.
Wildfires are a Premium-only feature. If you are using the free / ad-supported version of QuakeFeed, a small lock icon will be displayed next to the Wildfires heading. You can try Premium for FREE for 7 days! Tap on any locked feature, then tap Upgrade.
If you would like to turn off the Wildfires heading, tap the Settings button (bottom right corner) then turn off the Show Wildfires in List setting.
