The province uses SaskAlert (Saskatchewan's Emergency Public Alerting program) to alert the public in real-time of an emergency situation - and we know that some mobile phones are not compatible to automatically receive the SaskAlert emergency messages.
Most phones that were made after March 2018, and have LTE service at the time of the announcement, should receive the alert.
If your phone is not compatible and you want to receive SaskAlert messages - please download the SaskAlert app by searching for "Saskatchewan Emergency Alert" in the Google Play Store or App Store.
For more information on the Alert Ready system go to the Alert Ready website.
