Emergency alerts are built into all android, ios and other mobile phones sold in almost every country during the last 5 years. GSM standards are global. The U.S. finally changed "presidential alert" to "national alert" recently.
Well, today's alert still showed up as "Presidential Alert", so I guess the US hasn't quite finished changing over yet. ^_^; (Samsung Galaxy phone)
Since only the President or the Director of FEMA can issue it…. It’s not too terrible.
