Crash Detection, available on iPhone 14 and newer models, utilizes advanced sensors to detect major car accidents and ensures emergency assistance is summoned if the user is incapacitated. The feature allows for a critical 10-second window to cancel the call before automatically dialing 911 and relaying the user’s location. It proves invaluable for those unable to seek help themselves, with medical professionals emphasizing the importance of immediate response during emergencies. Additionally, it can function via satellite when cellular services are unavailable, enhancing its effectiveness.
As a nurse, I've seen firsthand how time is everything in an emergency, when someone is unconscious or unable to communicate, a few minutes can mean the difference between life and death.
If your iPhone picks up on a crash, you have a 10-second window to stop it before it automatically dials 911 and sends your location to your emergency contacts.
