A Reddit user activated Emergency SOS on their phone accidentally, sharing a naked video with 12 emergency contacts, sparking a mix of embarrassment and humor. To avoid similar mishaps, users can adjust their Emergency SOS settings. Options include requiring a secondary action before emergency mode activates, choosing what information contacts receive, and updating the emergency contacts list. Additionally, enabling voice command to turn off alarms hands-free can prevent unintended SOS activations. These adjustments can help prevent potential embarrassing situations while still ensuring safety.
