Notes: Some features of PunchAlert require a data connection either through WiFi or a cellular network. During an emergency incident, continued use of GPS running in the background can decrease battery life. We monitor battery life to account for such scenarios. In the case of issues with 911+ call quality, we provide a link to call 911 outside of PunchAlert using cellular. Emoji icons supplied by EmojiOne.
