Hello! @lucasm1  Thanks for posting your questions.

 

You’ll have several types of alerts options on your phone, which are listed below and also the steps to verify they are enabled.

  • Alerts issued by the President
  • Alerts involving imminent threats to safety of life

(Extreme and Severe)

  • AMBER Alerts (missing child alert)

 

To enable or disable Imminent Threats and AMBER Alerts,

follow the instructions below:

  1. From a Home screen, tap Messages.
  2. Tap More options > Settings >

Emergency alerts.

  1. Tap Emergency alerts.
  2. All alerts are enabled by default (check mark

showing). Tap on an alert option to disable it.

 

Thanks!

Charise
