Post taken from The iPhone Blog:
Yes the title is true an iPhone app actually saved someone in Haiti after the earthquake happened. Dan Woolley found himself trapped in rubble when the Haitian earthquake struck, injuring his head and leg. All he had was his iPhone which had a unknown first-aid medical app.
The app helped him diagnose his broken foot, make a tourniquet for his leg, and described the best way to bandage his head to stop the bleeding. He even set the alarm clock to go off every 20 minutes to make sure he stayed awake and alert.
65 hours later he was rescued.
