New Pixel Feature for Emergency Calls Without Signal
- New 'Satellite SOS' feature spotted in Pixel phone settings for emergency calls/texts without Wi-Fi/cell signal
- Similar to Apple's Emergency SOS feature launched in iPhone 14 models in 2022
- Sends emergency services your situation details, name, contact info, location when activated
- Unclear which Pixel models will support Satellite SOS - possibly only future devices
- Could be invaluable for emergencies in remote areas if available on existing Pixel models with long update cycles
