Google Confirms Bug: Pixel Satellite SOS Page Appears on Unsupported Devices
Google has confirmed a software bug causing the 'Pixel Satellite SOS' page to appear on older Pixel devices, despite these models not supporting the feature. The page, intended for Pixel 9 series and newer, is currently accessible on unsupported devices like the Pixel 7 Pro.
The bug has made the Satellite SOS settings page visible on older Google Pixel devices, even though these models lack the necessary hardware for the feature. The page, which explains how Satellite SOS works and allows users to set sharing preferences, is not functional on these devices and lacks the 'Try a demo' button.
Google has attributed the issue to a general software error and has assured users that they will fix it by the end of the day. Once resolved, the page will no longer be accessible on unsupported phones. It's important to note that Satellite SOS connectivity is currently available in 33 countries and is included at no charge for the first two years on compatible devices.
