If there\u2019s one thing that\u2019s tremendously useful about the iPhone 14 lineup<\/a>, in spite of some of its limitations<\/a>, it\u2019s got to be Emergency SOS via Satellite<\/a>. It allows you to get help in situations where you normally can\u2019t because of a lack of cell signal. Now, it has started saving lives.<\/p>\n

There was an incident in the Angeles National Forest in California where a car went off the side of the mountain, falling 300 feet into a remote canyon. Luckily, one of the people in the car had an iPhone 14, which is what ultimately saved their lives. There was no cell signal at all, but the person was able to connect to one of Apple\u2019s relay centers and request assistance.<\/p>\n

Deputies, Fire Notified of Vehicle Over the Side Via iPhone Emergency Satellite Service<\/p>\n

This afternoon at approximately 1:55 PM, @CVLASD<\/a> received a call from the Apple emergency satellite service. The informant and another victim had been involved in a single vehicle accident pic.twitter.com\/tFWGMU5h3V<\/a><\/p>\n

Apple provided emergency services with accurate latitude and longitude information on the location of the accident, and using that, a helicopter was dispatched to rescue the victims out of the canyon and transport them to a hospital.<\/p>\n

Without Apple\u2019s help, getting in contact with emergency services would have been much harder. We\u2019ll probably hear more news stories like this over the next weeks, months, and years as more people get their hands on the latest generation of the iPhone.<\/p>\n
