In times of earthquakes, hurricanes, attacks and shootings, traveling, unfortunately, does not always mean tranquility and rest.
We can say that if some of these natural disasters happen, they can be predicted a few days in advance.
This ends up giving us the opportunity to prepare, cancel trips, change plans or simply take shelter. That's why today we're going to introduce you to an app about earthquakes and hurricanes.
They are essential applications when a natural disaster is about to happen, others simply happen when we least expect the same thing to happen (unfortunately more often).
Some we couldn't predict like bombings and shootings. As much as we complain about cell phone dependence, we must assume that we need technology a lot.
This can help save lives and reassure family and friends when we are traveling and something unexpected happens. Check out!
