In the U.S., Apple additionally introduced Roadside Assistance via satellite to “connect users to AAA if they have car trouble while outside of cellular and Wi-Fi coverage.” Once you’ve made contact, the iPhone starts a conversation by text message and shares your location with emergency responders as well as letting your emergency contacts know where you are. Providing you are outdoors with a clear view of the sky, you can use its software and GPS information to guide you where you should be pointing.
