Yanig does not detect earthquakes and does not send earthquake alerts. Google’s Android system sends supported alerts. Yanig helps you find the setting, remember to re-check it, and stay prepared.

Simple by design

From “Where is the setting?” to “I checked it.”

Clear guidance without pretending the app can verify a system setting it cannot read.

01

Identify your phone

Yanig detects the phone brand and shows a guide tailored to the device. You can switch guides manually anytime.

02

Open the right Settings screen

One tap tries the most direct route first, then falls back through Android Settings paths and written instructions.

03

Record your own check

You tell Yanig whether you found the toggle and whether it was on. The status card is always labeled as your report.

04

Re-check later

Choose a 30, 60, or 90-day reminder so updates, resets, or device changes do not turn into forgotten settings.

Everything useful. Nothing noisy.

A focused earthquake companion, built around trust.

Guided setup

Brand-aware instructions that account for real Android differences.

Samsung, Xiaomi/Redmi/POCO, Oppo, Vivo, Realme, Infinix, Tecno, Motorola, Google Pixel, Huawei/Honor, plus a generic fallback.

Preparedness

Useful even with no connection.

Go-bag checklist, family plan, emergency numbers, and a fast Drop, Cover, Hold On reference are available offline.

Reminder that respects reality

A status you control — not a fake “verified” badge.

Yanig cannot read whether Google’s earthquake setting is currently enabled. Every status shown is based on your own latest answer and timestamp.

Seven languages

Switch anytime.

English, Tagalog, Cebuano, Ilocano, Hiligaynon, Bikol, and Waray, with English fallback for unfinished translations.

No-GMS handling

No false promise on unsupported phones.

If Google Play Services is unavailable, Yanig explains that Google’s feature may not exist on that phone and points users to alternative official earthquake information.

Privacy you can inspect

Your choices stay under your control.

Yanig is designed without accounts, ads, analytics, or a developer backend for saved app data. It also does not request device location permission; you choose a province instead.

Safety and transparency

What Yanig will never pretend to be.

01

Not an earthquake detector

Yanig does not detect earthquakes and does not create or deliver Google’s earthquake alerts.

02

Not a setting verifier

Android does not give Yanig a reliable way to read the toggle. The app only records what you report.

03

Not a government app

Yanig is an unofficial community app and is not affiliated with PHIVOLCS, DOST, NDRRMC, Google, or Android.

04

Not a guaranteed warning

Earthquake alerts are not guaranteed. Nearby shaking may begin before, during, or after a notification arrives.

Official earthquake information

Use PHIVOLCS as the authoritative Philippine source.

Yanig’s recent-quake feed uses USGS data for convenience. PHIVOLCS figures are official for Philippine earthquakes and may differ.

Questions, answered clearly

Before you rely on any alert, know the limits.

Does Yanig send earthquake alerts?

No. Yanig does not detect earthquakes or send earthquake alerts. Supported alerts are generated by Google’s Android Earthquake Alerts system.

Can Yanig confirm that my Android earthquake toggle is on?

No. Yanig cannot reliably read that system setting. It asks you what you saw, saves your answer locally, and reminds you to check again later.

Does Yanig need my GPS location?

No. Yanig does not request location permission. You select your province manually so the app can provide a general area reference for quake distances and filters.

What happens on phones without Google Play Services?

Yanig shows a separate explanation that Google’s Android Earthquake Alerts feature may not be available on that device and points users to official earthquake information sources.

What data does Yanig save?

App preferences, your selected province, reminder settings, self-reported checks, preparedness checklist, family-plan notes, post-quake answers, and cached quake data can be stored locally on your device. You can view stored values and delete them from the app.
