Early warning system hardwired into the new OS
Apple has built an earthquake early warning system into iOS 5 for iPhone users in Japan.
Following the March quake which devastated much of the country, Apple has added its own built-in service to compliment those apps already available on the App Store.
The new service can be turned-on via the notifications centre.
Japan boasts the advanced earthquake early warning system in the world, with an online system that provides up-to-the-minute updates on activity registered on over 1,000 seismographs.
