A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I own an Android, and I was not aware of this feature. I checked my settings, and it appears that the countdown was turned off by default. Does that mean the SOS feature was disabled, or that it would activate instantly with no countdown? Because the latter would definitely increase the risk of false alarms.
