Wouldn't this be an easy fix? Just have any emergency number dialed automatically kill all 3rd party apps before sending the call.

- constantcrying 4y agoThat should really not be neccessary and potentially a user might want to use third party applications during an emergency call. (Imagine having saved the medication a relative receives on your device) The OS has near complete authority over the device. If a user dials an emergency number android has to choose to give it to a third party app and that should never happen. (I am also not sure that it would be a fix at all. From the description above it seems like android would try to start Teams, even if it was closed.)
- xenadu02 4y agoShouldn't the OS fallback to the cellular system for emergency calls if whatever provider is registered fails to start the call?
- Sakos 4y agoOr just always hardcode the use of the built-in phone app for emergency numbers. That shouldn't be something that a third-party app can register for.
