Other Mobile DevicesRecently, Apple gave their iPhone 14 series phones the ability to contact emergency services via satellite if no cell phone signal is available. Of course, this service isn't perfect. For example, this will not work if you are inside a building. It is also hard to use in an area that has a lot of trees or buildings. But while it may not be perfect, it is a huge step towards saving more lives. I think Samsung should allow their users to do this as well. This feature would save lives in emergencies, especially in rural areas. I would feel a lot safer with my Samsung phone if this feature was also compatible with it.

Rumor has it that it might start with the Galaxy S23 series but all and all Google is working on it

Wow, that's interesting. I really hope it happens. As someone who has lived in a rural area before, cell phone service isn't always available and can sometimes be scarce. I think this would really help the rural population in an emergency.
