  1. Lol this is SUCH obvious paid advertisement for Apple 🙄you really think this wasn’t staged??!
    Samsung and Google Pixel phones have had these safety features for YEARS. So tired of this biased coverage from 9 news.

    Apple adds a glorified SOS button and suddenly they’re lifesafers, gimme a break brah.
    This is why I refuse to employ anyone who uses an Apple device, if I have a job applicant come in with an iPhone they're not getting hired.
    Android had this feature for ages, but no one wants to cover that 'cause it’s not “trendy” enough or for the poors. Total joke 😂

  2. FAAAAAKE, a body surfer wont get taken out to sea, they are amazing swimmers and understand the ocean. Its like a seasoned surfer getting washed out to sea 😂😂😂😂

    As stated by others this is an AD.
