On many occasions we have heard that ours smartphone can save our lives, but now we have real proof. We just learned from reddit that a user of a Google Pixel is saved his life after an accident thanks to one of the help functions. The features of these Google Phones are really many and there are some that are shared with other devices. However, others are exclusive to these particular devices. One of these is the one that allows call for help in case of an accident. Let's find out the story.
A Google Pixel 4XL saved its owner's life: the exclusive functionality of this Google phone took action in just 10 minutes
This user is the owner of a Google Pixel 4XL and just two weeks before the accident occurred, he had activated the traffic accident detection on your smartphone. As reported in the testimony on the social network, he does not know how the accident happened, since all he remembers is that he woke up face down in his Bobcat. He was in great pain and he struggled to breathe. He assumes his vehicle fell off an embankment. He was on his property but in an area that did not allow him to call for help
At that point he saw fit to use the voice commands of his device to call the Google assistant. However its position relative to the Google Pixel 4XL (who had been thrown away) was too far and the voice assistant could not hear the voice of the victim. At some point, however, he realized that a voice spoke below him, in the distance: it was that of the smartphone that warned him that help was on the way.

At that moment he made a local mind: the Pixel function that is activated following road accidents had automatically contacted whoever is responsible. Just a few minutes later, he heard the horns of the fire brigade which took approx 11 minutes to reach your location. This made him realize that he must have been unconscious for about 8 minutes, which is the time that Google took it to alert the emergency services.
