They can? Because I just checked on my Pixel 7 running latest update of Android 13 and the documented feature does not exist under safety and emergency. The update I'm running was released on July 5th and there are no newer updates available.

So again.... "Now"??? I guess they mean it's in the next version.

From the article:

Now Android users will soon get these "Unknown Tracker Alerts."

Emphasis mine.

Rule of android: if a post reads "now" in the headline, this means anywhere from 1 week to Never depending on where in the world you live and what phone you have.

Also applies to when Google does a "staged" rollout. Android Auto "Coolwalk" PTSD...

Pixel 7 Pro running 14 beta, don't see it either.
