If the sensors detect an impact, the feature will automatically connect the person wearing it to emergency services.
The feature is part ofApple’s increased focus on safety featuresin its mobile products.
Similar alerts have been received from passengers on a roller coaster at Six Flags Great America near Chicago.
It was trained on more than 1 billion hours of driving and crash data.
But the feature is intended to operate only when someone is in or on a vehicle, Apple said.
This doesn’t mean you should avoid roller coasters if you have the new iPhone or the Apple Watch.
Apple didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
