To be pedantic, Android doesn't do crash detection... Google's Pixels do (from the 3 onwards, in some countries).MrLongbeard wrote: ↑Sun Sep 25, 2022 11:54 amAnd has done crash detection for years.KungFooBob wrote: ↑Sun Sep 25, 2022 11:45 am Pah, my new Android alerts me automatically to any Earthquakes nearby over 4.5 on the Richter scale.

However.... (got a new angle), if your phone is 'new', then it can't have had that feature 'for years', so he can't have been referring to your phone.
Ha.

Re: iPhone 14 crash detection
I did know, and mine is a couple of models up from his but yes OK, granted it's Pixel phones only at present since 2019ish, and the app has been in the play store for the last 2 years.Slenver wrote: ↑Tue Sep 27, 2022 11:11 amI did wonder

So, Android running on Pixels has been doing it for years.

Re: iPhone 14 crash detection
Is the earthquake app more use than the tornado warning?
