3 Phone Tips That Could Save Your Life
When disaster strikes, staying connected can be a matter of life and death. But what happens if your cell phone loses service in the middle of a natural disaster like a hurricane or wildfire? Many of us rely on our phones for emergency calls, GPS, and keeping in touch with loved ones, but most don’t realize that a bit of preparation can make all the difference.
First, make sure your phone has the latest software update. Newer devices, like those running iOS 18 or the latest Android models, can access emergency satellite texting, even when regular networks are down. This means you don’t have to spend on expensive satellite internet to stay in touch.
Next, enable data roaming on your phone. This feature allows you to use other cellular networks when your primary carrier's service is disrupted. In a crisis, this could be your lifeline to critical information. Sometimes this feature is enabled automatically during a natural disaster, but during Hurricane Helene this system failed and the data roaming had to be enabled manually for many people.
Lastly, know where your local Register of Deeds office is located. Often these offices have stable internet connections when everything else is down, making them a surprising but reliable spot to regain communication.
