Abstract
A system and method for managing power consumption in a mobile device during an emergency is disclosed. The system includes an emergency management system running on a mobile device. The emergency management system can automatically enable one or more power saving modes when an emergency alert is received by the mobile device. The power saving modes may include a reduced communication mode. In the reduced communication mode the mobile device only communicates for brief periods at recurring intervals. The power saving modes may also include a simplified display mode. The simplified display mode may display content on the display of a mobile device in a way that reduces power consumption.
