911 Call Routing: 911 calls sent through your tablet
are routed based on automatic location information obtained from your tablet. If you cannot be located using automatic location information, 911 calls will be routed based on the address you provide in the NumberSync settings of your tablet.
Additional restrictions: Certain features are incompatible with NumberSync, such as noSIM, PINlock, Net lock, Airplane mode & no Wi-Fi, Setmobile data limit, Mobile data off, and Guestmode.
Device Limit: Sync up to 5 tablets.
Charges: When tablet is not connected to Wi-Fi,
data usage rates apply to voice & video calls on the tablet. International calls sent through your tablet incur charges consistent with your smartphone’s rate plan or international package.
Roaming: You cannot use NumberSync outside of the U.S., Puerto Rico, or U.S. Virgin Islands. Due to technical limitations, calls via NumberSync cannot be used with TTY devices and will not support 911 TTY calls. Instead, dial 911 with a TTY from a wireless phone on a cellular network or landline phone; or text 911 directly, where available; or call 911 through relay service using TTY or IP CTS from a wireless phone on a cellular network or landline phone; or use IP Relay or IP CTS from a capable device.
