As a result of analyzing the app files from the Android “Personal Safety” app v2026.08.06.960186296.0-release update released on Monday, August 24, 2026, we confirmed the addition of resource code for a feature that automatically sends an emergency SMS with a generated message to emergency contacts, in addition to a notification prompting a retry, if calling emergency contacts fails when the “Car Crash Detection” feature is triggered. Currently, when a call to emergency contacts fails upon triggering “Car Crash Detection,” the system simply prompts a retry. However, it seems the specifications are being updated so that an emergency SMS will also be sent, ensuring that the emergency situation is reliably communicated.
