🚨 It's important to know about Australia's new emergency alert system, AusAlert.

AusAlert is a new national emergency warning system that can send urgent safety messages directly to compatible mobile phones, including alerts that may bypass silent and "Do Not Disturb" settings.

If you feel unsafe or are concerned about your personal safety, including in situations of domestic and family violence, it’s important to consider how emergency alerts may affect you and take steps that support your safety.

A national test of the system is scheduled for 2pm (AEST) on 27 July 2026, following community trials across Australia, including in Queensland.

📱 Be aware that Critical Alerts may sound even if your phone is on silent.
📱 Critical Alerts won't sound on Aeroplane mode or a device that is switched off.
📱 Because Critical Alerts cannot activate on a device that is switched off, if it is safe to do so, consider turning off a device before a scheduled test and only turning it back on once the test period has ended.

AusAlert is designed to help keep communities safe during emergencies, disasters and other nationally significant events.
