Regardless of the make and model of your phone, it is likely to have an emergency SOS feature built in, just in case.

We will show you how Emergency SOS works on mobile platforms. It's main purpose is to let emergency services and your trusted contacts know that you are in trouble and where you are.

There is an Apple phone.

If you use the Emergency SOS feature on your phone, you can quickly call the emergency services in any country you are in and let someone know that you need help. Setting those contacts up is the first thing you have to do. You can choose Medical ID from the Health app.

Pick one or more names from your address book from the list under Emergency Contacts. When you use the EmergencySOS feature, these people will be sent your current location. When you are done, tap done.

It's possible to set up Emergency SOS on the go.
