Kinda funny that the most secure phone setup in the US is an iPhone Air on Boost Mobile. Who could have predicted that!

It isn’t restricted to Boost Mobile. It is only available on devices with the C1 or C1X modem, though. I assume this is because of specifics with the third party modems that most models in the wild have vs what Apple is doing in-house with their C1(X). If you call emergency services it will still provide precise location.

It is restricted to Boost Mobile in addition to using the C1(X), at least for the purposes of this beta version.

>It isn’t restricted to Boost Mobile.

Why does it list specific carriers, then?

		It could be a flag in the per-network CarrierConfig bundle. I imagine that would help with jurisdictions that might require this protocol for legislative reasons
