I gave iSeismometer a try using my bare naked iPhone 5s after removing it from it's aftermarket protective case.
I put the iPhone right on top of my Left speaker and cranked up AC/DC Back In Black to volume levels that would annoy most people, including me. It barely registered on the heavy drum beats.
I also tried various other tunes and placement including the wood floor in front of the speakers, on the equipment shelf, on the amp, on the DAC, etc.
IMHO, it appears that the App isn't sensitive enough to view the effects of vibration control (or lack of) in most home audio systems but it works for it's intended purpose for earthquakes. If I place the iPhone on my desk and shake the desk slightly to simulate an earthquake, it registers on screen nicely.
The first screen shot image is with the iPhone on my Left speaker cranking out Back in Black by AC/DC. The second screen shot image is with the iPhone on my desk as I shake the desk.
I don't subscribe to that iphone status and can't imagine what this is about. I do, however, receive notices from the USGS whenever there is an earthqauke registering at a magnitude above 6.0 anywhere in the world and it isn't at all difficult to note that there has been quite a lot of activity in the south Pacific region in the last few months.
I suppose in the end it all comes out the same in that we receive our notices in one way or another. I prefer to receive mine in a different way than you apparently do. C'est la vie.
If you were to follow the link and do a little reading you might see this application as a tool to assist you/us/inmates in REDUCING VIBRATIONS IN ONES AUDIO SYSTEM. The key words in the subject title are VIBRATION DETECTOR. The application is not specific to the iPhone. It is available for Android and Windows phones.
Once the app is loaded you would place the phone on your equipment rack, plinth or piece of equipment. Activate the app and observe the phone screen. The visual graph tells all. I see this app as a way to compare different footers, plinths, etc and the effects they have on vibrations. It works for me.
