1 Emergency SOS is dependent upon network connectivity and other factors and may not be reliable for emergency communications or available in all countries or languages. The Wi-Fi version of Google Pixel Watch relies on your phone to call emergency services. This feature requires your phone to be nearby and connected through Bluetooth. Your watch canโ€™t be used to speak with emergency services without the Bluetooth connection to your phone. Your Google Pixel Watch LTE doesnโ€™t need a phone to call emergency services. However, it needs an active LTE connection on your watch to call emergency services. Go to g.co/pixelwatch/personalsafety for more details.
