A family surrounded by wildfires in Maui used the iPhone 14's Emergency SOS via satellite service to call emergency services.
These are three distinct messages, complete with their timestamps. They show that satellite messages need time to get through, but they also indicate the state of mind of the people in the car.
A similar message was sent at 6:36 PM, informing responders that a 21-year-old in the car is hypoglycemic.Thankfully, the tourists only had to wait another 10 minutes to be rescued. During that time, the dispatcher on the satellite chat informed the family that the information had come through and rescuers were approaching. In turn, the iPhone 14 owner said via chat they were rescued at around 6:47 PM.
