I'd still look at Workflow or Launcher. No calling emergency responders, no opening apps and tapping through screens. Just set up a workflow or launcher icon, add it to the Notification Center, and it's ready. I haven't done this, but I believe either app is capable of it.

If this is incorrect, let me know and I will dig up the information I have on it somewhere.

Create the text ahead of time then pretty much a one button process, something like that. The Red Cross Earthquake app does this but this function is buried in the app and in a crisis, it will not be the easiest. Related to this, how do carriers manage the cell towers when they go on emergency power? Can it be assumed that texting traffic will move? From E.T.'s Keyboard...

Instead of pressing the button on the watch you press the screen lock button 5 times now and it sends a message with your location to your contacts defined under the SOS feature as well as alerts the authorities. So the button no longer re springs the phone I don’t believe now it’s dedicated to SOS functions. Download and install the beta 2 of 10.2 to enable this feature. You define the settings under settings, general, SOS. Hope that helps.On Nov 13, 2016, at 7:04 PM, E.T. <ancient.ali...@icloud.com> wrote: In light of the 7.8 quake in New Zealand, I am again revisiting my desire to develop some methods to touch bases with friends and family should a disaster strike my area. One idea would be a way of sending a text message already composed to a specific list of contacts. Is this feasible in iOS 10? From E.T.'s Keyboard...
