After people dial 911, Apple’s forthcoming iOS 12 will automatically share their location with first responders. “The move is intended to dramatically improve emergency service response time, and Apple says the feature is implemented with privacy in mind,” 9To5Mac reports. “Apple already implements a feature called Hybridized Emergency Location, or HELO, that tries to estimate an iPhone caller’s location for emergency services using radios.”
