Your Wear OS smartwatch will now warn you when an earthquake is about to happen

• Google’s Android earthquake alerts are expanding from phones to Wear OS smartwatches, providing warnings about seismic activity directly on your wrist.


• Rolling out with Google Play Services version 25.21, these wearable alerts will show the quake’s estimated magnitude and distance to the epicenter.


• This is a crucial addition for smartwatch users, especially those with cellular models who may leave their phones behind but still need to receive timely warnings.

If you live in an earthquake-prone region, receiving alerts about potential seismic activity as soon as possible is critical. That’s why Google launched its Android earthquake alerts feature in 2020, which detects earthquakes by aggregating sensor data from millions of phones. When it detects a quake, Google sends a warning to your device with the estimated magnitude and distance to the epicenter. While these alerts are currently limited to phones, they appear to be coming to smartwatches soon.
