Watches can have cellular service.
- dymk 4y agoAnd now we depend on a cellular connected watch for this corner case of a corner case?
- semireg 4y agoThe idea of a highly integrated ecosystem is all about providing elegant solutions to corner cases. If you don’t have a cellular watch it’d just keep on working like it has been. False negative and all. But if the watch was there… Crash detection could just use the “everything is fine” feature by pushing it down from the cloud to both phone and watch simultaneously. I’m actually surprised this isn’t how it works.
- kaba0 4y agoWell, surely the person that dropped his phone can just send a few messages to his emergency contacts then that he is fine with that cellular.
- ec109685 4y agoRight, and he could get the alert and broadcast a “I’m fine message”.
- melling 4y agoMy Apple watch doesn’t have cellular service. Now can we find something worthwhile to discuss and flag this story dead?
