Apple’s Emergency SOS via Satellite saves two Canadians stuck in the snow

Published

Apple’s Emergency SOS via Satellite feature has saved lives on more than one occasion in the U.S.

And now, the feature has worked in favour of two women in B.C. The feature connects the iPhone 14 and 14 Pro with satellites if the device is outside a cellular network, allowing people to call for help in case of emergencies.

According to the Prince George Citizen, the two women got lost while making their way to Alberta. An accident on their original route caused them to take a detour through the Holmes Forest Service Road, where they got stuck in the snow.

Dwight Yochim, a senior manager with B.C. Search and Rescue, told the publication an Apple call centre center relayed the information to Northen 911. The local call center notified emergency services in the province and shared the subject’s GPS location.

Free for all developers, WWDC23 will spotlight the latest iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS advancements. The event will also provide them with unique access to Apple engineers, as well as insight into new technologies and tools.

This year’s online program will include sessions, one-on-one labs, and opportunities to engage with Apple engineers and other developers.

WWDC23 is also an opportunity to support student developers through the Swift Student Challenge, one of many Apple programs that seek to elevate developers and learners of all ages who love to code. With the help of Swift Playgrounds, students can create an app playground on a topic of their choice, according to Apple.

“WWDC is one of our favorite times of the year at Apple because it’s an opportunity to connect with the talented developers from around the globe who make this community so extraordinary,” said Susan Prescott, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations.
