T-Mobile brings free 911 emergency texting to AT&T and Verizon customers

You can sign up for emergency satellite texting if you have a phone compatible with T-Satellite, though there are some pretty notable exceptions. It doesn't support phones with emergency satellite texting built in, including the iPhone 14 and later, as well as the Pixel 9 and up (excluding the 9A). That means you can only use T-Mobile's 911 texting if you have an iPhone 13, Pixel 9A, a Samsung Galaxy S21 and up, or a newer Motorola phone.
