iOS has supported early earthquake warnings in Japan since iOS5. (see https://9to5mac.com/2011/08/21/ios-5-includes-early-earthqua...)
For other regions, like California, you can download a supported app to receive alerts, like MyShake (https://myshake.berkeley.edu).
Again, just because Google doesn't open their presentation with a dramatized video of people sending them fan letters about how their product saved their life doesn't mean their product aren't useful or not saving lives.
Another thing Google has had for some time is early Earthquake warning, which also has saved lives, maybe that's another feature you'll see show up on iPhones in a few years, and people like you will claim Apple invented it and praise Apple for it.
