Apple is reportedly planning to launch iPhone 14 series in September and now a new report has claimed that the upcoming models will feature satellite communication connectivity to allow users to make calls and send messages in areas without cellular coverage.

Apart from upcoming upcoming iPhone 14 series, Apple is expected to bring satellite connectivity to the Apple Watch. The Cupertino-based tech giant is bringing these features to help offer users connectivity options in cases of emergencies.

This plan will have Apple include two parts. The first, called “Emergency Message via Contacts,” would let users send short text messages to emergency services and contacts over a satellite network when there is no available cellular signal. The new protocol would appear with gray bubbles inside of the Messages app.

As per Bloomberg, the launch of this feature may be different in different regions due to different regulations in different regions. The feature may not be available in every region of the world.

Earlier, Apple was planning to introduce the same feature with last year’s iPhone 13 but the the iPhone maker decided to postpone it.
