TT911 – Text 911 your location and name without unlocking your phone

In plain words

TT911 is an emergency service that allows users to text their location and name directly to 911 without unlocking their phone. Designed for people in situations where making a call isn't possible or safe, the service streamlines emergency communication by eliminating the need to unlock a device first. This can be particularly useful for those in distress or unable to speak aloud during an emergency.
