Never should have been a high-speed chase. First, everybody knows they're dangerous, which is why they're against department policy in many cities. And second, it's being tracked. That's the whole point of the story. They could have kept a discreet distance until it parked. The Airtag battery would have lasted and they couldn't have lost track of the car. Better yet, you never know what kind of goodies those thieves might have led them to if you had just followed them. Maybe a chop shop. There was no need to catch them immediately.

Plus even if they find the car abandoned a mile away, their fingerprints would be all over it. It’s not like they would be impossible to gather up later. 

A little stuttery on my iPhone 11. Smooth as silk on my M1 iPad.

I want to add that because they say right upfront that they do not collect user data, I am MORE likely to purchase the game. 

Ive got a 44mm AW6 and it’s plenty big enough. I really don’t need more space. I already snag it on things.

These stories are important because they remind us how valuable this feature is.

Back in the 1970’s the FAA mandated Emergency Locater Transmitters on light aircraft. They are an armoured, battery powered, impact activated transmitter that would let rescuers find an aircraft that had crashed. There was much gnashing of teeth over this requirement, and a lot of stories about accidental triggering leading to false alarms that wasted people’s time. For a couple of years that was pretty much all we heard around the airport. But over time people got used to handling them in the right way. They got used to having them onboard. And yes the manufacturers learned how to tweak the switch design to reduce false activations. Now everyone agrees that they are a very good thing that saves lives.

I expect the Crash Detection feature on iPhones will follow the same trajectory. In a couple of years it will be normal to have this and no one will worry about the infrequent false alarms, just as they don’t worry about the occasional false alarms from smoke detectors, or burglar alarms, or ELTs. .
