Windows 10: National Emergency Alert System Integration

Does Windows any type of National Emergency Alert System covering Amber Alerts, Natural Disasters, Imminent Attacks, etc? If not why not add that?

Emergency Alerts

Hi Stephanie,

Just to confirm, is this the same thing that you tried on your phone, in order to turn off Amber Alerts?

• Open Settings.
• Tap on System.
• Tap on Messaging.
• Tap on the Change emergency alert settings link.
• Turn on or off the emergency alerts you want.

Let us know if this was the same thing that you tried.

We would also suggest to reset your phone after doing these steps to ensure that the changes on your phone's settings will be refreshed.

Simply press and hold the Power and Volume down button for 15 seconds and then release your hold afterwards.

 

Emergency Alerts

Hello ZealOut,

Typically this option is controlled by your Mobile Operator. You can see if your Mobile Operator has give you the ability to turn this option on/off on your own device.



You can do that by:

• Go to Settings
• Swipe Right to Applications
• Select Messaging
• Slide to bottom, if your MO gives you the ability you will see "Emergency Alerts".
  

If you have that option, simply touch it and you can change those alert settings. If you do not, then you should speak to your mobile operator to see if they have a way for you to manage it via their website.



Emergency Alerts Option:





If you have any questions, please let us know.

Is there a way to get emergency alerts sent to a Windows Phone, such as an Amber Alert or Tsunami Evacuation?
