SpareLine

Emergency calls

SpareLine does not reach emergency services

SpareLine cannot call 112, 911 or any other emergency number, from any of your numbers or devices. It does not pass on your location either.

In an emergency, use the phone app your device came with, or another phone.

What happens if you dial one

If you type an emergency number in SpareLine, the app does not place the call. It tells you that SpareLine cannot call emergency numbers and, on a phone, offers to open your device's own phone app with the number already typed in. You make the call from there.

The notice when you sign in

The app explains this when you first sign in, before it asks for access to the microphone. If the notice changes, you are asked to read it again.
