Okay kiddo, have you ever seen those emergency alerts that pop up on your phone? That's called a cell broadcast. It's like a message that gets sent out to a group of people all at once.
Let's say there's a storm coming and it might be really dangerous. The government or your phone company would send out a cell broadcast to everyone in the area to give them important information, like to stay inside and be safe.
It's kind of like sending a message to a bunch of people in a big room all at once. Everyone hears the same message at the same time.
Cell broadcasts can be used for all sorts of things, not just emergencies. They can be used to advertise sales, tell people about events, or even warn people about traffic jams on a busy road.
So, if you ever see a message pop up on your phone that says "cell broadcast," just remember that it's like a group message that's sent to a bunch of people all at once.
