Advanced Mobile Location
On 25 August 2021, the Australian Government announced the completion of the rollout of Advanced Mobile Location (AML) technology for the Triple Zero Emergency Call Service.
AML is a technology built into the operating system of Apple and Android telephones which will provide greater location accuracy to Triple Zero during an emergency call from a mobile telephone. It has the potential to save lives and improve outcomes for mobile callers in Australia, as it is doing in the countries in which it has already been deployed.
How AML works
With around 78 per cent of calls to Triple Zero originating from a mobile telephone, AML has the potential to assist a significant proportion of callers requiring emergency assistance. It is capable of providing a caller’s location within a 5-metre radius outdoors and a 25-metre radius indoors. Based on deployments of AML in other countries, most calls (about 85 per cent) will provide location accuracy within 50 metres.
- An AML-enabled smartphone recognises when an emergency call is made to Triple Zero (000 and 112), and if not already activated, activates the telephone’s location service functions.
- The smartphone assesses the location information available, using device-based hybrid methods, which combine GPS, Wi-Fi, mobile network information, and other sensor inputs to calculate the caller’s location.
- Once the device’s location is calculated, the smartphone automatically sends an SMS with the estimated location to the Triple Zero Emergency Call Service. This SMS is sent in the background while the caller speaks with the Emergency Service Organisation, and the caller is not required to do anything to enable the location information to be sent.
- If the telephone’s location services were switched off at the time the call was initiated, AML will temporarily activate the location service for the duration of the emergency call.
- It typically takes 25 seconds or less for the caller’s location to be calculated and sent to Triple Zero.
- When the emergency call has finished AML will be de-activated.
- The telephone will not retain a record of the SMS sent, and a caller is not able to retrieve it.
- AML works with Android telephones (version 4.1 and higher, with Google Play Services installed).
- AML works with iPhones running iOS 14.3 or later and Apple Watch GPS + Cellular devices running watchOS 7.2 or later.
- AML is not an App - rather it is a technology built into the operating system.
The AML service is a key collaboration between the Commonwealth Government, Telstra (as the Emergency Call Person for Triple Zero and 112), emergency service organisations in every state and territory (police, fire and ambulance), mobile carriers (Telstra, Optus and TPG Telecom) and mobile operating system providers (Google for Android devices and Apple for iOS and watchOS devices).
AML technology has now been deployed for the Australian Triple Zero (000) Emergency Call Service.

How does it work?
Any mobile devices with compatible software have AML capability already installed, meaning you won’t have to download any apps or change any settings for it to work. Currently, devices running Android 4.1 or higher and iPhones running iOS 14.3 or higher are compatible with AML technology. AML also works on Apple Watches with GPS and cellular capability running watchOS 7.2 or later. Find out how to check which software your iPhone is running here, or click here for information about checking which Android software is on your device.
Assuming you have the necessary software installed on your device, AML is automatically activated when you dial Triple Zero. Using any available information from your device about your location, GPS signals, nearby Wi-Fi signals and mobile network information, the technology quickly estimates location coordinates and passes this information on to emergency services via SMS. This allows operators to quickly determine where you might be calling from.
Experts have said that AML technology can provide a person’s location within 5m if you’re outdoors, and 25m if you’re indoors. This automated SMS reportedly only takes around 25 seconds to be sent to emergency services, and is sent free of charge, just as calls to Triple Zero are free of charge...
Why?
Its idiotic garbage for kids,and idiots, and chicks. Simples.
You've clearly never been on it. It's algorithm used to decide what it shows you is extremely good, hence why people get addicted. So if you're seeing idiotic garbage for kids and idiots, well I think you see where I'm going. It's a massively diverse platform, I see stuff right up my alley that I doubt idiots, kids and chicks are seeing.
Nah its for teens and chics dude, but you do you,.
lol, well, no...
Absolutely,. You mentioned chics and thus my comment. But your right 100%, the guys too. Goes for any social media really , but tiktok I think is a particularly s**t one. Just my opinion, matters for naught.
You’re
As long as we (Aust) treat all the foreign social media companies the same I don't have a problem
