Android 15 formally rolls out satellite messaging: Here’s how it works

[phillynews215]

• Satellite connectivity is coming with the rollout of Android 15.
• The new feature will allow you to send and receive messages without a mobile or Wi-Fi connection.

If you’re in a city, you likely won’t have any problems connecting to a mobile network. However, the coverage area only expands so far, so if you’re in a remote area, there’s a good chance you’ll have trouble finding a connection. In the past, being unable to connect to a mobile or Wi-Fi network would make it impossible to communicate. But that’s no longer the case with Android 15 bringing satellite connectivity to Android phones.

Today is the day, the stable version of Android 15 is finally rolling out. Along with the rollout, we’re getting a plethora of new features, including the satellite functionality we discovered and reported on back in March.
