I drive a lot for my job, a lot in rural areas with no mobile signal. I’ve never had to use it, but I have seen the SOS symbol and it is reassuring to know if I needed help I could get it.

Depending on price, I’d seriously consider subscribing to it, maybe one to bundle with Apple One.

FYI, SOS in the status bar means you don’t have service with your current carrier, but your phone still sees signal with another carrier so you can make emergency calls. This is unrelated to satellite SOS.

That's good to know. I never knew that
