Red Cross Apps Guide Survivalists through Natural Disasters
Red Cross has several apps that will help you in a natural disaster.
·Emergency App
For an all-in-one reference for any catastrophe, the Emergency App is the answer.
Users can also customize their alerts according to their areas and locations of their loved ones so that they can monitor activity in multiple places.
·Earthquake App
And the number of high magnitude earthquakes nearly doubled last year. With the Earthquake App, you'll receive realtime alerts and notifications and learn how to respond in this natural disaster while keeping your family and home safe from any further threats.

This is a musthave for people in hurricane areas. Much like the Earthquake App, it will supply you with details for staying safe in this circumstance.
·Shelter Finder App
In case your emergency shelter wasn't built to withstand whatever disaster came your way, the Shelter Finder App uses data from the National Shelter System and maps out the secured shelters across the country. Other than the address, the app also supplies you with details such as the agency running the shelter, capacity and current population of the shelter, among others.
