Now a revolutionary feature is about to come in Samsung Galaxy smartphones, which will allow users to use social media and important apps even without internet. The company has made popular apps like WhatsApp, X ‘satellite ready’ through satellite connectivity, so that there will be no need for mobile signal or internet plan. This feature can prove to be life saving especially in case of emergency, remote areas or in case of no network.

Users will get a direct connection to the satellite, so that messaging, maps and other apps will be able to run without mobile data.

These apps can be checked in Settings > Connections > Satellite menu.
