Apple is reportedly working on a new iPhone and Apple Watch feature that detects if you're in a car crash and dials 911 automatically.
As per The Verge, the current plan is to roll out such a feature by next year.
Building a new crash detection feature into the iPhone alongside CarPlay could bolster Apple's rumoured "IronHeart" project. While Apple's accident detection hasn't always worked as intended in the past, the company has had many years to collect data and analytics on willing iOS and watchOS users.
It remains to be seen how accurately Apple will be able to detect car crashes.
