On October 25, a 5.1 magnitude earthquake occurred in California, and Android smartphone owners were previously notified by iPhone users. This is reported by 9to5google portal.

In 2020, Google introduced an earthquake warning system to Android that gives users early warning of impending tremors.

As residents of California noted, smartphones running Android warned their owners about an impending earthquake a few seconds before the shaking was felt, after which the message was already received by iPhone users. In some cases, Apple alerts were already received during the earthquake.

“My Android smartphone alerted me seconds before the tremors associated with today’s earthquake. An office visitor with an iPhone received an alert within seconds. We were very close to the epicenter”– user @DaveKSecure tweeted.
