Tip: Emergency alerts have a special sound and vibration that is two seconds long,
followed by one second, then another one second.
To choose which types of alerts you receive, swipe up

notifications > Advanced > Wireless emergency alerts. The U.S. and local governments
send these alerts through your service provider. So you will always receive alerts for the
area where you are, and you won’t receive alerts if you’re outside of the U.S.
