You’re hiking in the mountains or forest with your phone’s GPS location turned off for privacy reasons. Suddenly, you find yourself in a medical emergency in a remote, unfamiliar location. You don’t know where you are. You urgently need to call for help, but you’re worried that without a precise location, emergency responders won’t be able to reach you in time. What do you do then?
Does What3Words app respect user privacy?
iirc, emergency services do not get your location from your telephone’s gps, but through towers that it’s connected to
even a dumbPhone can be located through it’s cell connection
Yep thats how it works. Cell tower triangulation makes gps toggling mostly useless. Well except for blocking apps to location
