Reply to comment by drdrdoug in Some iPhone 14 users say the crash detection feature has triggered false alarms and called 911 during rollercoaster rides or after a phone drop while driving by speckz

How do you know if crash detection is on? I don’t have a 14 but I’m sure some people didn’t know it was turned on in the first place or have just gone long enough to forget it was turned on.

It’s in the sos and emergency section of the settings. Turn off the automatic call to 911 after crash

The average person is not going to know about that feature

There is a toggle for it.

Apple: Turn Crash Detection on or off

Time for Apple to add Roller Coaster Mode. /s

It would be yet another mode, like Theater Mode (watch) or Airplane Mode.

Pretty sure it prompts you to turn it on or not during setup, just like fall detection on the watches.
