Important:

• Video recording is designed for you to record emergency situations and related events to improve your personal safety.
• In addition to our Privacy Policy, when you use the features of our products to record, upload, and/or share video and audio content, such as recordings of an emergency situation, we may log use of the application, sharing with emergency contacts, and video link views and downloads.
• Recordings of emergency events may be disturbing to your emergency contacts and may cause those persons distress.
• Please use the video sharing feature carefully. It is your responsibility to ensure full compliance with the law when you use this feature, which includes any applicable state and federal video recording or wiretapping laws.
• When you use this feature, you acknowledge and accept the statements above. Learn about our Terms and Conditions.

If you open another app that uses your camera, Emergency recording will be paused. When Emergency recording is paused, your recording shows a gray screen. To go back to your Emergency recording, open the Safety app again or tap the notification at the top of your screen.

Emergency recording can record and save video up to 45 minutes. The quality of the video is about 10 MB per minute.

If you turn auto share on, a link to your video is automatically shared with all of your emergency contacts after each recording. If you don't have emergency contacts set up, your video won't be shared with anyone. If you decide you don't want to share the video, you have 15 seconds after recording to cancel sharing.

Sharing is dependent on your internet connection and there might be a gap between when your recording is finished and when video is uploaded and shared. Any emergency contact you share your video to can download a copy of it.

There can only be one sharing link active per video at a given time. Each link created has a 7-day expiration timer that is meant to protect your privacy. You can deactivate a link at any time. To refresh the expiration timer, deactivate the existing link and create a new link.

To deactivate a sharing link:

1. On your phone, open the Safety app .
2. At the top left, tap Your info Your videos.

Emergency recordings are automatically uploaded to the cloud to help prevent data loss if your phone is lost or destroyed during an emergency situation. Uploading to the cloud requires an internet connection and may cost money if you're on limited data access. Uploaded emergency recordings can be managed any time with an internet connection.

To manage your videos:

1. On your phone, open the Safety app .
2. At the top left, tap Your info Your videos.
3. Next to a video, tap More Share or Delete.

1. On a locked screen, swipe up.
2. Tap Emergency View emergency info.

To help responders find you quickly, your phone's location can be sent when you dial or text an emergency number, like when you dial 911 in the US or 112 in Europe.

If Android Emergency Location Service (ELS) works in your country or region and on your mobile network, and you haven't turned ELS off, your phone will automatically send its location to first responders through ELS. If ELS is off, your mobile carrier might still send the device's location during an emergency call or text.

Your phone uses Emergency Location Service (ELS) only when you call or text an emergency number. 

If your phone has ELS turned on, ELS may use Google Location Services and other info to determine the most accurate location for your phone during an emergency call. ELS may also send extra info, like the language your device is set up with.

To help them locate and assist you, your phone makes this data available to authorized emergency response services. Emergency response services receive this data directly from your phone, not through Google.

After you complete a call or text during which ELS was active, your phone sends usage, analytics, and diagnostics data to Google via Google Play Services. Google uses this info to analyze how well ELS works and doesn't receive any info that could identify you, including your location.

When you send your location with ELS, the process is different from when you share your location with Google Maps. Learn more about Location Sharing with Google Maps.

You can let your emergency contacts find your location and receive updates about where you are and your battery percentage. You must give the Personal Safety app permission to access your location.

To use emergency sharing, you'll need:

• At least one emergency contact
• An internet connection with Location Services turned on

1. On your phone, open the Safety app .
2. Tap Emergency sharing.
3. Select who you want to share your real-time location with.
   • You can also add an optional message.
4. Tap Share
   • You can tap the notification banner to find the details of your "Emergency sharing."

Tip: If location sharing is unavailable in your country or region, a message will appear in the Safety app.

1. On your phone, open the Safety app .
2. At the top left, tap Emergency sharing Stop Stop sharing.
   • You can add a note to explain why you've ended the emergency share.

Tip: Emergency sharing will automatically end after 24 hours.

1. On your device, open the Safety app .
2. Tap Safety & emergency > Emergency sharing.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Settings.
4. Select the information that you want to share with your emergency contacts during an emergency share.
5. Turn Multi-device location sharing on or off.

Tip: When Multi-device location sharing is turned on for a device, we will use the device’s location as a backup in the case you start an Emergency Share on another device, but that other device can no longer share its location.

If you want your phone to check on you and let your emergency contacts know if anything is wrong, you can schedule a safety check. For example, you can use a safety check when you walk in an unfamiliar area or go to a party. You must grant "While in Use" location permissions to the Safety app.

1. On your phone, open the Safety app .
2. Tap Safety check.
3. Select your Reason and Duration.
   • You can set the check at any duration for up to 24 hours.
4. Tap Next.
5. Select your contacts.
6. Tap Start.

Tip: If you turn notifications on for your emergency contacts, they're notified when a safety check is scheduled and has ended.

When it's time to check for your safety, you'll get an alert for 60 seconds before emergency sharing begins. If you mark yourself safe, the emergency share will be canceled. You can stop the safety check at any time through the notification. If you don't choose one of the options in 60 seconds, emergency sharing will begin.

1. When you get the notification, choose one of the options:
   • I'm OK
   • Start sharing now
   • Call 911
2. If your phone is locked, you might need to unlock it.

If your phone turns off or loses signal, the safety check will remain active and will start an emergency share with your last known location at the scheduled check-in time.

When a safety check starts, if you turn notifications on for your emergency contacts, they get a text with your name, the duration of your safety check, and a reason, if you provided one.

Later, if you start an emergency share manually or can't mark yourself as OK when your phone checks in, Google shares a link to find your real-time location and remaining battery percentage in Google Maps.

Emergency sharing and safety checks stop when you stop it or mark yourself safe. When they stop, Google sends another text to your contacts to let them know it ended.

Use the Personal Safety app to send info to emergency services.

On your phone:

1. Open your Personal Safety app.
2. Tap Your info Emergency Info access Share during emergency call.

When you opt in to crisis alerts, you are notified in the Safety app about public emergencies or local crises, like natural disasters. Crisis alert notifications include a link to the Safety app's homepage where you can find extra information about the event.

1. On your phone, open the Safety app .
2. Tap Features Crisis alerts.
3. Turn Crisis alerts on or off.

Google manages crisis information from official local sources. If a crisis is posted that affects your location, the Safety app notifies you. Google posts crisis alerts based on various factors, like internet connectivity in the affected area, the availability of official content from governments and other authoritative organizations, and the impact on the ground.

To stop your phone from contributing to earthquake detection, turn off your phone's Google Location Accuracy.

Your Android phone sends you alerts about nearby earthquakes of magnitude 4.5 and above using your approximate location. Coarse locations from Android devices are used to determine which devices will receive an earthquake alert. This information does not and is not used to identify or locate a specific user.
