Donate Life America, allowing iPhone users to sign up to be organ, eye and tissue donors right from the Health app with the release of iOS 10.

"All registrations submitted from iPhone are sent directly to the National Donate Life Registry managed by Donate Life America," Apple said in a press release.

The Health app on iPhone includes Medical ID, "which makes critical health information available in case of emergency to first responders and is accessible from the iPhone lock screen. Medical ID can display categories like medical conditions, allergies, medications, blood type and emergency contacts," the report further read.

"On average, one person dies every hour in the United States waiting for an organ transplant because the demand for lifesaving transplants far exceeds the available supply of organs — and one donor can save as many as eight lives," said David Fleming, president and CEO of Donate Life America.

The press release said over 120,000 Americans are currently waiting for a lifesaving transplant — and every 10 minutes, a new individual is added to the national transplant waiting list.

At the time of writing, shares of Apple fell 1.25 percent to $94.69.
