Emergency SOS is a feature on your iPhone that lets you quickly and easily call for help and alert your emergency contacts. To access Emergency SOS on your iPhone, you need to press and hold the side button and one of the volume buttons until the Emergency SOS slider appears on the screen. You can then drag the slider to call emergency services, or continue holding the buttons to start a countdown and an alert sound. If you release the buttons after the countdown, your iPhone automatically calls emergency services. Emergency SOS works differently depending on your iPhone model and region. For example, in India, you need to press the side button three times rapidly to call emergency services. You can also customize the settings for Emergency SOS, such as adding emergency contacts, enabling auto call, and turning off the countdown sound.
