Don't risk an unexpected fall with fall detection on Apple WatchApple Watch can assist you after a fall and connect you with emergency services personnel if necessary.
Apple Watch's built-in fall detection feature is a powerful resource in times of distress. At the heart of the feature is the detection of a significant, hard fall. When this occurs, the wearable device automatically taps you on the wrist, sounds an alarm, and displays an alert. From there, you can decide whether to contact emergency services (from the watch, of course) or dismiss the warnings.
With fall detection, your Apple Watch is intuitive enough to know if you're moving. Following a fall, it will wait for you to stop to respond to the alert. If you're immobile and not moving, the watch will contact emergency services automatically if you don't answer within 60 seconds.
After this, you'll see a 30-second countdown on your watch to the time the automatic call is made. You can tap Cancel at any time to stop the countdown.
