Apple invested $450 million in a satellite-powered SOS system. We tested it out.

When Apple announced at its closely-watched September product launch event that it would soon introduce an Emergency SOS feature powered by a network of satellites orbiting above Earth, Brooklyn probably wasn’t the secluded location most had in mind for using it. But on a rainy afternoon last week, I found myself trying to stay connected to one of the satellites from Prospect Park as part of a demo of the upcoming feature.

Apple said because the user may be in a distressed state, a questionnaire helps to gather critical information more quickly.
