Emergency calling
Make an emergency call from the Lock screen
When something urgent is happening, you probably won't have time to unlock your device and call 9-1-1. If you
have a security measure in place, like a PIN or a biometric security, you can make an emergency call right from
the Lock screen. Just swipe up on your device's screen to be taken to the Lock screen, and then tap Emergency
call. A dial pad will appear where you can enter your desired number. Your registered emergency contacts will
also appear at the top of the screen. Finally, a Medical info icon will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap this
to show any medical information you've added to your personal contact.
Make an emergency call with no service or SIM card
In a dire situation, you can still make emergency calls even if you don't have service or a working SIM card. As
long as there is a network signal nearby, your device will let you contact 9-1-1. The network doesn't even have to
be your own carrier - it just needs a signal that is strong enough to put the call through. When you need to make
an emergency call, dial 9-1-1 the way you normally would.
