Smartphone users with the Android platform MyShake were alerted second before a 5.1 earthquake hit California, preparing them to a certain extent. At the time, a professor at Berkeley had given an exam to his class studying earthquakes and was interrupted by phones sending alerts midway. Google’s Dieter Bohn and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai were also among those Califonians who got an early warning of the quake.
