Google has begun rolling out Emergency SOS via satellite to its Pixel 9 series phones. This life-saving feature is now available in the U.S. in areas where satellite connectivity is supported. This means Pixel 9 users in those regions can now send emergency messages and share their location even when they’re out of cellular range.The Emergency SOS via satellite feature uses a combination of GPS, cellular, and satellite technology to connect users with emergency services when they need help the most. When a user activates Emergency SOS, their phone will attempt to connect to cellular networks first. If there’s no cellular signal, the phone will switch to satellite connectivity. The user can then send a text message to emergency services, including their location and any other relevant information.

Brand-new Pixel 9 series users in the U.S. are waking up to a notification on their devices letting them know that the Satellite SOS feature is now available to use. Satellite SOS can be accessed from the “Safety and emergency” settings menu, where you can proceed with a demo to get a peek of how the feature works. You can see the steps of this demo in the screenshots below.

Google has been working on Emergency SOS via satellite for some time now, and the company has partnered with Garmin Response to provide 24/7 professional emergency support. Garmin Response is a global emergency assistance service that provides medical and evacuation support to people in need.

The rollout of Emergency SOS via satellite to the Pixel 9 series is significant, as it is among the first Android devices (at least in the U.S.) to receive it. This feature provides users with a sense of security and peace of mind, knowing that they can get help in an emergency, even if they’re in a remote location. Hopefully, none of us will ever have to use it.
