Is there a way to see the history of my iPhone detecting a crash?

Is there a way to see the history of my phone detected a crash? I got in a minor crash the other day and I am trying to figure out exactly where it happened

Hi m_s07,


Re: I am trying to figure out exactly where it happened


Use Crash Detection on iPhone or Apple Watch to call for help in an accident – Apple Support

Eg: says:

"If you've added emergency contacts, your device sends a message to share your location and let them know that you've been in a severe car crash".

How Crash Detection works


"When your iPhone detects a severe car crash, it will display an alert and will automatically initiate an emergency phone call after 20 seconds unless you cancel.


If you are unresponsive, your iPhone will play an audio message for emergency services, which informs them that you’ve been in a severe crash and gives them your latitudinal and longitudinal coordinates with an approximate search radius".


All the best :-)
