The Google Phone application will show your location in emergency calls

One of the main problems when calling an emergency is that you cannot know the location of the caller. Now, Google Phone is going to change that. It will say where you are so that you can inform the emergency services of your location. Thus, the process will be facilitated and the services will be able to reduce the time necessary to reach the victim's place.

Thus, you can tell the emergency services the address that appears on the screen and they can find you much more quickly.

A map, the name of the street, the number of the house or building you are in, and also the GPS coordinates are displayed. The latter can be extremely useful if we are outside an urban area. Something that can happen frequently.
