Emergency Alerts

Iphone 14 pro All alerts are turned off on my phone but the emergency alert today 10/04/23 still came through.

Could be very dangerous for some people that it cannot be turned off.

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 16

You can not disable the government alerts.

That’s not up to Apple or Samsung, or any other phone manufacturer.

It’s the law.

If you think it’s a problem, call your senator and congress-critter and complain to them.

Agreed. Tell your representatives.
