    Default My phone just went crazy!

    Did this happen to anyone else? My phone started beeping (like the emergency broadcast system beep) and a little /!\ icon popped up about an Amber Alert: 2000 Green Honda Civic.... I didn't know they could do that!?

    Do you have smartphones? Wondering if it's some kind of app?

    It is part of SMS messaging, I think, tied in with the smartphone. You can opt out.

    Yes mine did as well, and it did last night at 3AM! You can turn the notifications off under the settings, Cell Broadcasts.

    Are you registered with any emergency services? I've registered my cell phone with my county since I'd like to know if there are wildfires and other interesting things.
