Comcast and Charter have launched satellite-based emergency messaging services for users of the Galaxy S25 and Google Pixel 9, following Verizon's recent rollout. Powered by Skylo, this feature will initially allow users to send emergency messages independently of Wi-Fi or cellular data, with plans for future updates to enable SMS text messaging through satellite. This move places Comcast and Charter among numerous providers exploring satellite connectivity, alongside others like T-Mobile and AT&T.
Comcast and Charter's mobile services now offer satellite-based emergency messaging, following Verizon's recent launch of similar features for specific devices.
Xfinity Mobile and Spectrum Mobile allow emergency messages without Wi-Fi or cellular data for Galaxy S25 and Pixel 9, with plans for SMS capabilities soon.
Comcast and Charter join other providers offering satellite connectivity, distinct from built-in features on the Pixel 9 and iPhone 14, enhancing communication options.
