Interesting observation: I am in a circumstance where I am transitioning from an Android phone (Samsung Galaxy) to a iPhone. I observed that android phone alerted me about an earthquake and that I should be ready to feel tremors. To my surprise as I was pondering how this system works - especially wrt to latency - where it alerts me head of time, I then fell small tremors in 2 or 3 seconds after the alert. The tremors were very small and I would not have noticed it if it weren’t for the alert. ~10 (may 15 minutes) later, the IPhone gave a tsunami warning which I take it was due to the earthquake.
What I was surprised by is how behind the iPhone was. I expected iPhone to be on par with android in terms of safety alerts.
Anybody know if there is a way to get the early alerts on iPhone like I did on the android phone?
In general my impression of Android is that it’s quite ‘leaky’ and apps can abuse it quite easily and iPhone is more secure. Would love to hear thoughts on this or point me to resources that address this question.
