Apple introduced the latest functionality in iOS 11, and since then it hasn't stopped doing well. It works especially well when we have the Apple Watch Series 4 onwards because it can detect falls or heart problems and notify the paramedics if we can't do that. We hope you never need to use this function, but as we've written before, it doesn't have to be set up with all your device's emergency details. Who knows that maybe it could save our lives at the same time.
