MyShake collects seismic data through mobile phone accelerator and performs a simple analysis. If a vibration is detected, the program will transmit the data to the Berkeley earthquake research laboratory in California, USA for processing.

Since the MyShake English version was first released in February this year, more than 170,000 users have downloaded this APP, and about 11,000 mobile phones transmit related earthquake data every day. The software has recorded earthquake data in countries and regions including Chile, Argentina, Taiwan, Japan, etc., as small as magnitude 2.5 earthquakes and as large as magnitude 7.8 earthquakes that occurred in Ecuador in April this year.

MyShake's prediction information is based on smartphones and has lower costs. After optimization and testing, the prediction accuracy will be further improved. Richard Allen, director of the Berkeley Earthquake Research Laboratory and professor at the University of Berkeley, said: "For earthquake-prone areas, such as Japan, MyShake has faster prediction speeds and higher accuracy. In countries with fewer earthquakes, MyShake can warn you as soon as possible to get more rescue time for it."

It is understood that the Chinese and Spanish versions of MyShake will be released soon, and the iOS version will be launched soon. (Internship compiler: Yan Chunying Reviewer: Xu Rui)
