Will my device receive an AusAlert?
AusAlerts work on many mobile phones, tablets and smartwatches. Devices don’t need a working SIM card.
They are expected to work on:
- iPhones 11 and up running iOS 26.4 or later
- Apple Watch SE2, SE3, Series 6 and up running watchOS 26.4 or later
- Android devices running Android 12 or later.
Older Android phones and phones that don’t use iOS or Android might still receive AusAlerts.
Apple iPads won't receive AusAlerts.
Always install the latest software updates on your device when asked so you’re ready to receive AusAlerts.
