Now <a href="https://www.xda-developers.com/personal-safety-emergency-sos-feature/" target="_blank">XDA-Developers</a> and <a href="https://www.androidpolice.com/google-pixels-personal-safety-app-can-now-automatically-record-video-during-an-emergency/" target="_blank">Android Police</a> point out a new feature that can automatically record video if you activate the built-in Emergency SOS.We installed the update <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.safetyhub" target="_blank">from Google Play</a> on a Pixel device. It informs users that it can record continuously for up to 45 minutes once it’s activated, assuming your phone has enough storage. If there’s an internet connection, the video will get automatically backed up to your Google Account, where it will be stored for seven days. If you tell the app to Share Automatically, it will send a link for that video file to any Emergency Contacts you’ve selected.<img src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/iI58XjkBnBTRJUSVAJ3nyalfJDQ=/0x0:701x800/1200x0/filters:focal(0x0:701x800):no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/22891927/pixel_emergency_sos_settings.jpg" alt="Pixel Emergency SOS settings screens" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Pixel Emergency SOS settings screens Image: Cameron FaulknerIf you have a Pixel phone, you can find the feature in the Personal Safety app’s settings. To activate the Emergency SOS, users press the phone’s power button five times. While it’s active, the phone is still available for you to use with a minimized viewfinder and notification icon to indicate that a recording is happening. The SOS can do other things depending on your settings, including calling 911, choosing to play (or not play) an alarm sound when activated, or share information with your emergency contacts.</blockquote>
