Emergency SOS issue.. !! Keep sending SMS

This morning by mistake as my winter jacket sleeve was too tight, SOS was initiated on my Apple Watch. From that moment my contacts that are set on that feature started getting SMSes and this continued during all the day as I was moving to different positions.

 

My credit dropped down a lot!!

 

SOS Emergency explanation on the Apple Watch iOS app says that this can be disabled by going to Notification and deselecting "stop sharing". However there is no such feature under "notification"... why? Secondly even if I deselect SOS Emergency services, my contacts continue to receive SMSes... so I had to stop using my iPhone.

 

It is the first time that I need to consider iPhone an unreliable device and switch to other devices in order to continue working... so bad feeling... any help please?

Hi

 

As the Emergency SOS feature has been activated accidentally, you may wish to consider turning off the "hold to auto call" function:

 

  • On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch > General > Emergency SOS - turn off Hold to Auto Call.

 

If you would like to submit feedback or suggestions to Apple, you can do so here:

 

The option to stop sharing is described as becoming available during the limited period of time when the Emergency SOS feature has been activated and updates are sent to your emergency contacts as your location changes.

 

Updates can be stopped by selecting Stop Sharing in the notification that is provided on your watch when this happens or by tapping the status bar on your iPhone and selecting Stop Sharing Emergency Location.

Tnxs. However I may have been not clear enough. I am not getting any recurrent notification on my Apple Watch and nothing on my iPhone status bar.

Everything is silent and not showing anything, but the SMS are sent automatically anyway. Is this a bug? I tried to restart both my iPhone and Applewatch and deselect the SOS Emergency feature without success.

We are having the same problem. Has anyone figured it out. My wife doesn't recall activating sos at all

My father has this problem, too. I've received emergency signals 5 times already. He says he doesn't press the button for long time. Maybe he did unintentionally the first time, but later — surely not.

Thanks.

I'm experiencing the exact same issue!  Would love a fix!

I'm having this same problem! not sure if it is an issue with my apple watch or phone

This does not answer the question as it does not help us stop the SMS messages that keep being sent.

I'm experiencing the same thing!!! It's so annoying. How did you solve it? I turned off the watch and turned it back on again but it still keeps sending the text alerts. I even restarted my phone. No luck.

I had the same issue, This seems like a apple bug.
Here's my workaround to fix the issue

1. Go into the Health app > Medical ID and remove the emergency contacts from there.

2. Go to  Watch app and turn off the "Hold to Auto Call" feature.

3. you can go back to Health app and re-add your contacts.

 

This either worked for me or magic happened.

I don't know which would have been easier. I fixed mine by impairing it from my phone, then re-pairing it. I restored it from the last automatic backup and it worked perfectly.

Same issue, Apple a response here would be nice, I never put my watch in sos mode and I can't get to stop sending texts...what a great feature!
