Apple Is Bringing Car Crash Detection to iPhone, Apple Watch; Will Auto-Dial 911

According to reports, Apple is developing a new iPhone and Apple Watch feature that can detect whether you are in a car accident and automatically dial 911. The current plan is to launch such a feature next year. The Google personal safety app on Pixel phones already includes a feature to ask for help when a car accident is detected, just like connected car services in modern cars, including General Motors’ OnStar, Subaru’s Starlink and Fiat Chrysler’s Uconnect.

Many cars on the road today are not equipped with any connectivity, so collision detection on the iPhone also means that more drivers can get the help they need in the event of an accident, as long as they are in their pockets or installed on the dashboard. According to Apple, the increase in the use of unsafe smartphones in cars makes way for integrated systems such as CarPlay and Android Auto, the former appearing in nearly 80% of new cars in 2020.

Building the new collision detection function together with CarPlay into the iPhone can support Apple’s rumored IronHeart project and connect its phone to the car’s settings, just like HomeKit controls smart speakers and lighting.

Aiming at the annual revenue stream of US$2 billion (approximately Rs 14,915 crore) that General Motors brings through OnStar through built-in functions will be what Apple has to do.

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.

As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026. Meanwhile, Tom is also likely to make an appearance as Spider-Man in Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday, which will go on floors in the spring of 2025.
