According to the user, identified only as Xanderpy, she had traveled for work and, upon arriving at the hotel, she began to feel a pain in her chest. Before passing out, the woman managed to send a message to a friend who was in the same hotel and “collapsed on the floor face down”.

When she got to the room, the friend promptly called the emergency service, but learned from the attendants that an ambulance was already on the way. According to Xanderpy, when passing out, the Fall Detection of the Apple Watch was triggered and, as there was no response, it triggered the emergency automatically.

At the hospital, the doctors said that the woman had ruptured her aorta, a very serious consequence of the aneurysm that requires the immediate transfer of the patient to the hospital.

Grateful to be with his mother once more, Xanderpy once thought stories like this were just for “publicity or possibly made up”.

Obviously, I don’t think so anymore. […] It made me an Apple user for life and showed me that technology like this really can save lives.

Amazing, isn’t it?

Apple has released the first update of a new type of security update for “iPhone” and “iPad” devices called “Rapid Security Response”, according to the British Daily Mail.

These software releases are intended to deliver important security improvements to devices between operating system updates.

It can help fix vulnerabilities within the software that might give hackers access to your smartphone.

The first “rapid security response” was made available to Apple devices running the latest versions of iOS, iPadOS and macOS. These are iOS 16.4.1, iPadOS 16.4.1, and macOS 13.3.1, all of which were released last month.

To install the first Rapid Security Response, go to your device’s Settings, then tap General and Software Update.

An option should appear that reads “iOS 16.4.1 (a) Security Response,” and below it is a button that says “Download and Install.”

After you click this button and then Reboot Now, your device will turn off and turn back on once more with the update installed.

This should only take a few seconds, so it’s much faster than regular iOS, iPadOS, and macOS updates.

When complete, it will read your operating system as iOS 16.4.1 (a), iPadOS 16.4.1 (a), or macOS 13.3.1 (a).

Your device settings will also be adjusted to ensure that any future Rapid Security Response is installed automatically.

To check this, go back to the Software Update section and click Automatic Updates.

The release of the first Rapid Security Response comes less than a month following the release of iOS 16.4.1, which fixed two pressing security flaws.

Both might have allowed hackers to infiltrate the device and “execute arbitrary code”, according to Apple, access private data, allow control of device functions and install malware.

Apple said the new “rapid security updates” can be used to “more quickly mitigate certain security issues” that may have already been exploited or reported.
