According to XDA-Developers Editor-in-Chief of Mishaal Rahman, who handles the latest information on Android, the emergency information app has been updated to “Personal Safety” with its own Pixel 2 XL. The update is not Google's intended behavior, and it seems to have happened accidentally because Rahman had a pretty custom Pixel 2 XL.
According to the description of the Google Play store, Personal Safety is an app for Pixel, and if it detects that a smartphone has encountered a traffic accident, it will automatically contact the emergency call phone number.
It is said that accelerometers, microphones, position data, etc. will be used to detect traffic accidents, and if a collision is detected, it will notify with vibration and maximum volume warning sound, whether the user really needs help Asked and explained. The user can stop the app with a tap or voice command, or call the emergency call phone number, and even if there is no response, the emergency call phone number will be reported with location information.
In addition, when responding 'No need to report', Personal Safety says, 'There was no collision', 'It was a small collision' and 'Notify after all' for the purpose of reconfirming safety and improving the future. It displays three items and collects information from users.
In addition to the emergency call number, there seems to be an option that allows you to contact a specific contact at the time of a traffic accident.
Chris Welch of The Verge of the news site thinks that `` Personal Safety '' will start as a function that can be used only in the United States, and first appears as a new function of `` Pixel 4 '' which is a newly released terminal We anticipate that this is likely.
According to Mr. Welch, there were about 40,000 fatalities in the United States in 2018. Mr. Welch wrote that this feature would greatly appreciate the number of people who died.
'Pixel 4' is expected to be announced at an event on Tuesday, October 15, 2019.
