This is one seemingly tiny, new feature of the device. He might not have bought the device for this feature, or even have known that it was there. Or rather, the people reading might have not bought the device for this feature, or even have known that it was there. I think this is what makes the story popular enough to be going around.
- 1123581321 7y agoAdditionally, some of us who have this watch and this feature enabled want to share stories that verify the feature works for some people ergo could work if something happens to us (and this also helps us to rationalize our purchase!)
- ogre_codes 7y agoFWIW, unless you are over 60 it's not enabled by default. Presumably this is to minimize false alarms, but if you want this feature enabled, you should make certain it's enabled. Here's how: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208944 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208944
- eduren 7y agoThank you for mentioning! I was under the impression that I had it enabled, but your comment got me to check.

- JshWright 7y agoThe correct answer (per the docs) is "over 65".
- saagarjha 7y agoRight, I missed the "unless" in my replacement.
- ogre_codes 7y agoSimply: If it's important to you, CHECK IT. Those older than 65 should have it enabled, but should check. (I wasn't sure about the exact age so made a conservative/ lazy guess)
