When an incident is detected by your Forerunner watch and your phone is connected, the Garmin Connect
app can send an automated text message and email with your name and GPS location (if available) to your
emergency contacts. A message appears on your device and paired phone indicating your contacts will be
informed after 15 seconds have elapsed. If assistance is not needed, you can cancel the automated emergency
message.
