Can I Call Emergency Numbers with Talk360?

Updated yesterday

No. You cannot use Talk360 to call emergency numbers such as 911, 112, 999, or other local emergency services.

This limitation applies to all VoIP calling apps, not just Talk360.

Why Emergency Calls Don’t Work with Talk360

Talk360 is a VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) service. This means calls are made over the internet, not through traditional mobile or landline networks.

Emergency services require:

  • Accurate real-time location tracking

  • Guaranteed network priority

  • Direct access to local emergency systems

VoIP apps cannot reliably provide this information, especially when:

  • You’re connected via Wi-Fi

  • You’re traveling or abroad

  • Your IP location doesn’t match your physical location

Because of this, emergency authorities cannot safely trace your location when calls are made through Talk360.

What Should I Use in an Emergency?

For any emergency situation, always use:

  • Your mobile provider’s regular calling service, or

  • A local landline, if available

Even without an active SIM plan, many phones allow emergency calls via the mobile network.

Important to Know When Traveling

If you’re abroad:

  • Emergency numbers may be different per country

  • Your local SIM or roaming network is still the correct way to call emergency services

  • Talk360 should never be used as a replacement for emergency calling
