Yesterday we featured you in our magazine informed about the fact that the brand new function of the iPhone 14 (Pro) in the form of automatic car accident detection has achieved its first success in the Czech Republic. On Saturday evening, there was a traffic accident in Prague, for which the recently introduced iPhone 14 called for help. And thanks to the audio recording published by the Prague fire department on Twitter, we can now get an idea of how such an automatic call from an iPhone actually works after an accident it sounds. You can listen to it in the tweet below this paragraph.
"Are you OK?"
“…the owner of this iPhone was in a serious car accident and is not responding to phone calls…”
This is how we heard an automatic message from an iPhone on line 112. https://t.co/at1m1htl31 pic.twitter.com/wcFmT4QIU5

As you could have heard for yourself, Apple to report the accident, he used his classic female automaton voice, which is also used for VoiceOver, for example. It tells the emergency services what it is about and then reports the exact coordinates of the accident site to them, thanks to which they can go to the accident to help. It is rather interesting that the voice of the machine only plays in the foreground, but the sound from the surroundings continues to be picked up by the phone, thanks to which the operators on the line can hear, for example, the voices of the participants in the accident and the like. This is also the case with this recording, in which, in addition to the voice of the machine, you can also hear a question from one passenger in the car to another: "Are you OK?”. So the function as such is really smartly created and has a great potential to help.

That hill, it's thick... it has the potential to save a life 💪
I'm a little scared Apple watch 8 and they also have car accident detection and so that if I get a little fat, e.g. when parking, so that they don't call the emergency line and it's not like an unnecessary trip.
There is a delay when the watch first warns you that it has detected an accident and will call the emergency services - then it waits. If you don't deactivate it, they assume that you are injured (perhaps unconscious) and call. So you don't have to worry.
Does not respond to taps.
So you're broke. This happened to me and at first they asked if I was ok.
