Current Text-to-911 Availability in Iowa

 

 

 

 

As of May 29, 2018, 97 of Iowa's 99 counties have 911 call centers capable of receiving text messages. The two counties where call centers are still not Text-to-911 capable are Pottawattamie and Scott.

Currently, six mobile phone service providers have taken the necessary steps to allow you to text 911 on your mobile phone in Iowa: AT&T, i-Wireless, Sprint, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular, and Verizon. As the equipment in each 911 call center is adjusted to enable the receipt of texts, customers of these carriers can use the feature within a matter of days
