Emergency SOS and Calls

This feature is not supported on Wi-Fi only tablets.

Use Emergency SOS

If you are in an emergency situation, you can quickly and secretly send an SOS message or make an SOS call to your emergency contacts.

  1. Go to Settings > Security > Emergency SOS, and touch Emergency contacts to add an emergency contact.

  2. Enable Also send SOS message and Auto-SOS call, and set related permissions as prompted.

Once you have enabled the Emergency SOS feature and you are in an emergency situation, press the Power button five times in quick succession and your tablet will automatically send a message with your current location to your emergency contacts. It will also automatically call your emergency contacts one by one and play a pre-recorded SOS message, then end the call automatically.

If Auto-SOS call is disabled, after the message is sent, your tablet will bring up the emergency call screen, from which you can quickly call an emergency service or one of your emergency contacts.

Make Emergency Calls

In the event of an emergency, you can make emergency calls directly from the lock screen of your tablet even if there is no signal.

The emergency call feature is subject to local regulations and individual mobile carriers. Network issues or other types of interference may lead to emergency calls not working.

  1. From the lock screen, access the screen for entering your password, and touch Emergency. If you are in an area with a good signal and your tablet has an Internet connection, it will automatically obtain your location and display it on the screen.

  2. Enter your local emergency number and touch to call the number. Alternatively, touch Emergency information and select an emergency contact to call.
