About public warning messages

Public warning systems are used to send alert messages to users with enabled mobile devices. Public warning messages

are text messages that alert users of possible threats to safety in their area. Messages may include severe weather

warnings, missing child alerts, or national emergencies.
Depending on your wireless service provider, public warning messages don't contribute to data usage in your wireless

service plan. This feature might not be supported, depending on your region, service provider, and wireless network. For

more information, contact your service provider or administrator.
