Medical Information: Store your medical information on your

to a designated contact. Once activated, and you designate a contact,
press the Power button 5 times to send the SOS message. You can
record and save a video of up to 45 minutes. Default mode is OFF.
Emergency Location Services (ELS): This Google tool allows first
responders to identify the location of an emergency call/text from
an Android device faster and more accurately, even if the device's
Location setting is set to OFF. Your phone must be running
Android 10 or later. Locations are sent directly to the emergency
service contacted and are not viewed by Google.
