Google Pixel Watch's emergency calling just got a little less instant

Google's Pixel Watch lineup makes contacting emergency services in a crisis easy. You only need to press the crown five times quickly to trigger a 5-second countdown, after which the watch will initiate a call to your emergency contact or services. However, in January this year, Google announced a change to this method, adding an extra verification step to reduce accidental triggers. Nearly a month later, the change appears to be widely rolling out.
