Yes, t his is about an iphone but it's interesting and it's against my
religion to read the iphone group. If this doesn't apply to Android, it
will soon.

A year ago: I believe they are figuring out how to connect a cell phone
to satellite, so that even out of range, one can call for help.

That's already used in iPhone 14. Some towns that ski resorts are in or
near were having a heckuva time with all the auto-emergency calls
generated every time a skier with the latest iPhone took a fall but was
fine. The software was designed to activate an emergency alert to local
authorities when the user's car sustains impact, jarring the body. The
small towns didn't have the manpower to deal with hundreds of emergency
calls that had to be responded to in person. They were begging people to
turn the app off while they were skiing. (Apple has since been refining
it.) There was also a couple whose car went off the road into a deep
canyon. They survived only because their iPhone automatically alerted
the closest hospital.
