I bought an Apple Watch many years ago. “This is it!” I thought. Finally, I have a watch that I can wear. ” It lasted maybe a week. Watches aren’t for everyone, but if you have a watch, or if you have children or older people, you can do so much with it.
However, not all the best features are enabled by default. Let’s fix that.
Fall detection
Sure, anyone can use this, but it’s especially useful if you’re caring for an older or clumsy relative. (I’m not embarrassed!)
If the wearer spills a liquid and the phone is not within reach, a prompt will appear on the watch screen asking to call emergency services. If the watch detects no movement for more than 30 seconds, an alarm will sound and emergency services will be called. This will save lives, guys.
- For Apple Watch: clock app On your iPhone, “My Watch” tab.Tap Emergency SOS.turn around Fall detection On or off.If enabled, you can select always on or ON only during training.
- For Samsung watches: Galaxy wearable app.Tap clock settings > safety and emergencies.Tap the switch next to Heavy fall detection. If no emergency contacts are listed, you must add one for this feature to work.

For everyone: Medical ID is required
Medical ID lists your blood type, medical conditions, emergency contacts, and even allergies (a great feature if you or a loved one has anaphylaxis). This means that even if you are unable to communicate in an emergency, you can still access information on your watch without a passcode.
Here are the steps to do this: Even if you don’t have a smartwatch, we highly recommend doing it on your smartphone. I will also show you how.
