Apple CONFIRMS Emergency SOS Via Satellite For iPhone 14..
Welcome back to Tech Craze. Apple said Nov. 10 its $450 million investment in an SOS via satellite service has helped Globalstar upgrade ground stations across the United States and elsewhere with high-power antennas. These upgrades were needed to increase the reliability and coverage of Globalstar’s satellite constellation, Apple said ahead of the service’s debut later this month, to ensure iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro users can reach emergency crews while outside terrestrial networks. Cobham Satcom provided the antennas to bolster all of Globalstar’s ground stations worldwide, including new sites in Nevada and Hawaii, and existing facilities in Texas, Alaska, Florida, and Puerto Rico. The SOS via satellite service will initially only be available in the United States and Canada.
In a support document, Apple says Emergency SOS via Satellite "will be available with an iOS 16 software update coming in November 2022." Given that iOS 16.1 was released in late October, and that iOS 16.2 is expected to be released in December, Emergency SOS via Satellite will likely be enabled with iOS 16.1.1, which is already in testing and should also address issues related to Wi-Fi connectivity and the SKAdNetwork framework.
