What is accidentally called emergency sos iphone?

When emergency SOS is triggered on an iPhone, the device will automatically call the local emergency number. This can occur accidentally if the user presses and holds the side button and volume button at the same time, or if they rapidly click the side button five times in succession.

Once the call is made, the iPhone will also send a message with the user's location to any emergency contacts listed in the Health app. This allows friends and family to be notified and potentially provide assistance or contact emergency services on the user's behalf.

If the user accidentally triggers emergency SOS and does not need emergency assistance, they should cancel the call immediately by tapping the "Stop" button on the screen. If they do not cancel the call, emergency services will be dispatched and the user may be charged for the call.

It is important to familiarize yourself with emergency SOS and how to use it properly, as it can be a lifesaving feature in a true emergency.
