According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, the accident detection feature on iPhone 14 phones unexpectedly activates and alerts emergency services when the user and his phone are on a roller coaster (roller coaster) in an amusement park, according to the Verge website, which reported on the issue.
The technology built into phones, which is designed to alert authorities that the phone’s owner has been in a car accident when it senses a shock, appears to be malfunctioning at the moment. As a result, the roller coaster’s thrilling movements, sudden deviations, and abrupt stops are interpreted as collisions that require the assistance of emergency services.
Apple introduced this function last month by adding shock detection sensors to the Apple Watch 8 and the new iPhone 14 line of smartphones. If the user does not cancel the warning within 20 seconds after a collision, the devices will display an alert and seek for help.
When contacting the police, the gadget plays a voice message informing them that the user has experienced an accident and giving them the user’s position so that they can find him. This is what happened to several device users when playing a roller coaster game.
According to “The Wall Street Journal,” the authorities are disturbed by an iPhone 14 bug.
