If you’re utilizing crash detection on the iPhone 14, spend money on a very good telephone mount.

Motorcycle proprietor Douglas Sonders has a cautionary story in Jalopnik at present concerning the iPhone 14’s new crash detection characteristic. He was using his LiveWire One bike down the West Side Highway at about 60 mph when he hit a bump, inflicting his iPhone 14 Pro Max to fly off its handlebar mount. Soon after, his girlfriend and fogeys obtained textual content messages that he had been in a horrible accident, inflicting a number of hours of panic. The telephone even known as the police, all as a result of it fell off the handlebars. All due to crash detection.

Riding a motorbike is very dangerous, and the very last thing anybody wants is to assume their cherished one was in a horrible crash once they weren’t. This is clearly an edge case, but it surely makes me surprise what different type of false positives we see as extra telephones undertake this know-how.
