Will you pay for satellite features?

The launch of Android 15 is right around the corner, and we’re well aware of the features coming to the latest mobile OS. However, one significant potential addition could be Pixel Satellite SOS.

While drilling into Android 15 beta 4 during an APK teardown, we discovered that Google could be readying a satellite communication service. The service would allow users to contact emergency services via the Google Messages app without a terrestrial network connection. That sounds pretty great, right? Well, there’s a small caveat.
