emergency sos on the iPhone 🚨🚨

The Emergency SOS feature on the iPhone is designed to help you quickly call for help in emergency situations. Here's a detailed overview of how it works:

### Activating Emergency SOS

1. **Using the Side Button**:
- On iPhones with Face ID (like your iPhone 16 Pro Max), press and hold the **Side Button** and one of the **Volume Buttons** simultaneously until the Emergency SOS slider appears.
- Drag the slider to call emergency services.

2. **Automatic Call**:
- If you continue holding the Side Button and Volume Buttons, your iPhone will automatically call emergency services after a countdown of 3 seconds. This is useful if you cannot access the screen.

3. **Using Settings**:
- You can also enable Emergency SOS through **Settings** > **Emergency SOS**. Here, you can customize options like auto-call.

### Deactivating Emergency SOS

If you accidentally activate Emergency SOS:

1. **Canceling the Call**:
- If you see the countdown screen, you can tap **Stop Calling** before it finishes to cancel the emergency call.

2. **After Calling**:
- If you've already called emergency services, you can explain that it was a mistake when they answer.

3. **Turn Off Auto Call**:
- To prevent accidental activation in the future, go to **Settings** > **Emergency SOS**, and toggle off the option for auto-call if desired.

### Additional Features

- When activated, your iPhone may also send a text message with your location to your emergency contacts (if set up).
- It can also trigger an alert sound to notify others nearby that you need assistance.

This feature is incredibly useful for ensuring safety in emergencies, but it's good to be aware of how to manage it effectively!
