Might be worth adding a reminder to your calendar (to reduce being startled):
"The national system for sending emergency alerts to mobile phones in the UK will be tested again this September, the government has said.
It will see compatible phones vibrate and make a siren sound for 10 seconds while displaying a message at 15:00 BST on 7 September, even if they are set to silent."
Well that was handy. Having sat there waiting to see if it made me jump. My husband's went off about a minute before mine. Did it know I might jump? Probably not and more likely because my phone is older.
