Motorola will bring satellite messaging service on its Defy rugged smartphone in Q1 2023. The company has partnered with Bullitt to bring satellite connectivity to its Android devices. Satellite connectivity was introduced by Apple with iPhone 14 series. The feature on iPhone 14 as well as iPhone 14Pro model allows s to make an emergency call and send SOS messages even when there is no cellular or Wi-Fi connection. Now, Motorola is also planning to bring this feature to the Android eco-system, as announced at CES 2023.

As per the report, to use this service on Motorola Defy rugged 5G smartphone, s will need to install free Bullitt Satellite Messenger app. Initially, the service will only text and emoji, which will later extend to images, audio, and video . Bullitt added that those who will have the free Android or iOS application installed on their handset will be able to receive and react to messages sent from Bullitt Satellite Messenger over IP or satellite service. On the other hand, the s without the app will get the messages as an SMS, however, they won't be able to respond to it.
