Apple has released a new iPhone update — iOS 16.3.1, including „optimisations“ for the iPhone 14 and 14 Pro’s Crash Detection feature, which has been criticised by some search and rescue personnel for causing false alarms during winter sports activities.
A few other fixes are included in this update, including those for iCloud settings and Siri requests for Find My app, and the tech giant also released new software for tvOS, HomePods, and the Mac, reports The Verge.
On new iPhones and Apple Watches, the Crash Detection feature alerts emergency services if users are unresponsive after a „severe car crash“ and is enabled by default, however, some officials have said that the feature has caused several false reports that have logged the time and resources of first responders.
