This feature of satellite connectivity will be available to users in the iPhone 14 series of phones sometime this month.
Apple said that iPhone 14 series users in the US and Canada will be able to use the satellite connectivity feature from November.
Thanks to this feature, users will be able to send text messages to aid agencies in emergency situations even from areas where there is no cellular or Wi-Fi coverage.
Apple has also announced to spend 450 million dollars to enable this feature.
According to the company, this service will be free for users for 2 years, however, what fee will be charged after that has not been told yet.
The company has not said anything about how long this feature will be available for users outside the US and Canada.
But it is possible that this feature can be introduced for users in other countries in 2023.
For this feature, Apple has partnered with a company called Globalstar, whose 24 satellites will provide coverage to users.
