iPhone 12 models and MagSafe accessories should be kept a "safe distance" away from medical devices, Apple says.
Sarah Tew/CNETApple has expanded its list of products to keep a safe distance away from medical devices such as implanted pacemakers and defibrillators due to potential magnetic interference. In a support document updated Friday, the company says the iPhone 12, Apple Watch, AirPods and other products should be kept at least 6 inches apart from medical devices, or more than 12 inches apart if wirelessly charging.
The document, spotted earlier by MacRumors, notes that medical devices such as "implanted pacemakers and defibrillators might contain sensors that respond to magnets and radios when in close contact." The company advised people to consult with physicians and medical device makers for specific guidance.
