Because of an issue with iOS a couple of years, Microsoft added a minimum of 2 characters (used to be zero, actually) and 100 ms delay. Apple came back and made it 3 within iOS. Microsoft changed the EAS spec to suggest a minimum of 3. Every Android manufacturer has their own implementation of EAS (Google did not license it and make it a part of Android itself).

It appears to be 4 but the C-level who asked wants a definitive answer.
