Indian government will require all iPhones to include panic button feature in 2017<div class="feat-image">
</div>
<p>A new motion signed into law in India will require all phones, including iPhones, to feature a ‘panic button’ to call emergency services and GPS for location pings from January 1st, 2017. The provisions are being brought in to aid the ‘security of women’,
via the Indian Express.</p>
<p>Obviously, GPS has existed in iPhones since the iPhone 3G but it seems that Apple will have to make some software modifications to iOS to comply with the panic button request.</p>
