Understand location alerts, messages, and calls
Learn what each step in your emergency flow does.
What to do
Location alert
The app can share the available location with eligible linked recipients. Look at the alert details to see whether a location was included.
Spoken message
The phone can play a message out loud to ask people nearby for help. This does not send the message to a contact.
Phone call
The app can try a configured number. Check whether the phone opens the dialler or actually starts the call.
