Apple, this is not an Apple Watch, mmm hangout system the user and the system check the attention of the victim and, if there is no response, an emergency call is automatically called. In addition, on the iPhone, the user can activate the distress alert simply by pressing the on / off button. Now, by combining some of its technologies, Apple wants the iPhone to detect car accidents and automatically call for help as early as next year.

People familiar with the development of this new feature have made it clear that this advanced feature will also appear on the Apple Watch.


With a focus on the health and well-being of its users, Apple has developed technologies for its devices that can be a means of help when the situation calls for it. Thus, starting next year, iPhone users in a car accident will be able to automatically call 112.

According to WSJThe Cupertino-based company plans to launch a product feature called "collision detection" for the iPhone and Apple Watch next year. Collision detection uses data from sensors built into the company's devices, including an accelerometer, to detect car accidents as they occur, for example by measuring a sudden peak in gravity or “g” force on impact.

This feature would be another benefit to highlight its technology using motion sensor to create security features on your devices. As we have already mentioned, and we will show here how it worksA few years ago, Apple introduced fall detection on its smartwatches, which detects when users have fallen hard and dials 112 if they don't respond to a notification asking if they're okay.

This year, the company added a feature to the latest version of its iPhone operating system that evaluates users' gait stability.

Walking resistance
Walking Stability is an innovative iPhone metric for assessing the risk of falling. It uses customizable algorithms that evaluate your balance, strength and gait, and sends a notification whenever your walking stability decreases. It also helps you improve your condition with the exercise you choose.

Apple may change the release schedule. This is because the people quoted by the WSJ have mentioned that this is not a finished product yet and that it is still being tested.

Either way, this could be another important way to help Apple users.
