Yeah, accidentally got the alarm too. I think it started a countdown to actually dialing 911, but didnt make it to 0 before i cancelled it. Well, I hope thats what it was anyways. Freaked me out.
Then I started thinking about if it did that when I was actually in trouble. I mean, if i was being held at gunpoint, I don’t think I want a giant alarm going off. I worry that would be a great way to get myself shot.
But, then I was ultimately thankful for it, in the circumstance at least, cause then it definitely would have dialed 911 and wouldn’t have known…
I still wish there was a way to call silently though. Or, maybe there is, but im not gonna purposefully get to the point where I could find out.
There is. Check your settings. You can turn off the alarm. And at least on pixels, you can have it show buttons on the screen to ask for police, fire or ambulance.
