Will the 3G Shutdown affect my ability to call 9-1-1 on my mobile phone?

Learn about calling emergency services during the 3G shutdown.

Voice services (including 9-1-1) will not be supported on 3G and 4G LTE (without VoLTE capability) devices once the network is shutdown. Upgrading to a VoLTE capable 4G LTE or 5G device will be required to access mobile voice services (including 9-1-1).

Glad we could be helpful. Thanks for the feedback.
