Google’s Pixel Watch gets Fall Detection starting today

Google announced that it’s rolling out Pixel Watch fall detection starting today.

However, Google says it won’t accidentally call emergency services for winter sports accidents, as the Apple Watch’s crash detection has done.If the Pixel Watch detects a possible fall and a lack of movement for about 30 seconds, it will vibrate, emit an alarm and display an onscreen message checking on you. If it wasn’t a bad fall, tap the “I’m OK” button to dismiss the alert; tap “I fell & need help” if you want it to call 911.
