I guess you have experienced more than once raising your iPhone high up hoping to get cell tower coverage area so that you can send a message or browse a website. It was probably in the mountains when you went to the village or other areas where no people live.
You may want to read further if this has ever happened to you or not as Elon Musk launches a new project. The CEO of Starlink recently revealed additional information related to the launch of six new satellites – successfully placed in orbit – created to ensure all the areas that have no access to mobile data.
In other words, Elon Musk wants all regions in the world to get a signal of coverage. It will also ensure that there will be no more dead zones on the internet that is a reality now. And by this pharaonic project, it would renderApple’s iPhone’s emergency SOS feature, redundant.
However, despite the fact that many models of the iPhone already support 5G communication, as well as this technology has been spread around the world and ensures high rates for transferring mobile data, now in many regions of the planet the signal is too weak or absent at all.
Despite the entry of new satellites to Starlink’s orbit around the Earth, Elon Musk notes that his technology “is a perfect fit for areas with no mobile coverage. “.
Now with the entry of this technology the iPhone 14 model and beyond will not require the emergency SOS feature. This feature is intended to enable a user send a message to emergency services in case where location is non existent due to lack of mobile data.
The biggest feature rollout of 2022 is Emergency SOS which has been very effective at saving the lives of people who are stranded or hurt in places where there is no internet access.
And yet, the reality is that the fact that the Emergency SOS function is obsolete is not particularly important. But what is really crucial is that the technologies should keep developing in such a manner and that people should be able to devote brighter lives thanks to Elon Musk’s satellites, regardless of the brand of their phones. The idea of being able to browse the web from anywhere proved to be elusive for decades.
