It worked on my Android 10, not on my wife's Android 11 though!

Yay - disabling it on my iPhone worked!

I might re-enable it now.

Good explanation.
But if you are on 3g or android under 12 it seems you won't receive it.

MrsM's Android 10 4G tablet went off.

To turn off - Apps and Notifications - Emergency Alerts - and turn off the individual levels.

With my Android 11 you can turn alerts off in one go

If Yes:  What phone brand/model number?
