    Tired-of-it
    I was interested in an SOS ability that could be activated very incospicuously, in case of a personal emergency or abduction type situation. A Samsung phone has the option of pushing the power button 3 times rapidly and it will send an SOS signal to your contacts. IPhone has the same ability by pressing the power button 5 times rapidly. My question is simply if anyone knows if the same option is available on an LG10 phone. Hope this info can help keep one of your loved ones safe or to help yourself. Oh by the way, when you activate the SOS signal it also keeps track of where you are,or may be going out of your own control.. ((hugs))
