Test found iPhone 12 was able to STOP device responsible for regulating heartbeat

Nearly six months after Apple confirmed that the iPhone 12 could interfere with medical devices such as pacemakers, the company has added a large number of its products to the list.

The update, which came over the past few days, is for products with magnets and electromagnetic fields that should be kept 'a safe distance away from your medical device,' including devices such as pacemakers and defibrillators.

'To avoid any potential interactions with these types of medical devices, keep your Apple product a safe distance away from your medical device (more than 6 inches / 15 cm apart or more than 12 inches / 30 cm apart if wirelessly charging),' Apple wrote in the support update.

'Consult with your physician and your device manufacturer for specific guidelines.'
