Innovation means transforming the customer experience in powerful ways at T-Mobile. We aim to solve big problems at the Un-carrier, which is why nearly three years ago, we set out to eliminate mobile dead zones by turning the smartphone in your pocket into a satellite phone. We’ve built the most advanced satellite-to-mobile solution in the U.S., with more than 550 satellites in orbit and counting. No special device, no apps to download and no pointing your phone at the sky — just seamless connectivity, even in places like national parks and remote rural areas where terrestrial networks can’t reach. Our public beta, launched on Super Bowl Sunday, is already serving hundreds of thousands of people, including AT&T and Verizon customers, who have sent millions of messages. Some of those messages have even reached 911 and critical first responders in places previously without service. This is the kind of innovation that moves industries forward, and more importantly, saves lives.
