So the new iPhone's Face ID unlocks your phone by recognizing your face. What happens if you're in a terrible car accident that damages your face? Would you not be able to unlock your phone to call 911?

Or if you're in a domestic dispute and you get some black eyes and/or large swelling? Or a broken nose? You wouldn't be able to call 911 either.

Someone correct me on this thought. I don't really want to be right about this.

I don't think you need to unlock your phone to call 911


Hopefully. Thanks for that.

You haven't needed to unlock your phone to call emergency services in like ten years, brah. We figured that out real quick because people in emergencies ain't got time to think about that shit. You can call the police from any phone you can get your hands on, as long as it has power. I don't even think you need a phone service provider.

I've never had to call 911 so I've never tried. At least that won't be a problem.
