Google Messages will soon let you send emergency SOS messages over a satellite connection. As spotted by X (Twitter) user Neil Rahmani and reported by Mishaal Rahman , Google has started adding UI elements for emergency SOS via satellite in its Messages app. Rahman points out that the SOS activity is now only a placeholder in the program. This does not prove that the next Pixel phones or any other devices will support satellite communication. However, this suggests that Google wants to embed the service within its own messaging app rather than an entirely new app. Google has already announced that Android 14 will allow smartphones to connect directly with satellites. A similar satellite connection feature of current iPhones has helped save several lives, most recently during the unfortunate fire in Hawaii. It looks like Google Messages is indeed preparing to add support for Satellite Connection.

However, it is not clear which phones will support this feature and how Google will implement it.
As Rahman said in a previous post about X , satellite support on Android depends on your device's modem hardware. Not all devices running Android 14 can support satellite connectivity. Both the Pixel 7 and Pixel 8 series are believed to have hardware for satellite communications. However, they need a significant software update to enable satellite connectivity.
