ICE - In Case of Emergency
To make it easier for emergency personnel to identify important contacts, you can list
your local emergency contacts under
―ICE‖ in your phone‘s Contacts list. For example, if
your mother is your primary emergency contact, list her as
―ICE-Mom‖ in your Contacts
list. To list more than one emergency contact, use
―ICE1-___,‖ ―ICE2-___,‖ etc.
Create a Group Entry
You can create a group by assigning personal Contacts entries as members and then naming
the new group. Each group entry can contain up to 40 members for sending messages, or up to
20 members for making Direct Connect group calls. Currently, Sprint phones do not support
Group Connect calls with Nextel or PowerSource phones. When creating a group entry, please
make sure to include only users with Sprint phones.
