SOS Mode on iPhone

SOS mode keeps randomly coming up on my iPhone. I’ve restarted it (many times) and just tried “volume up, volume down and side button “, nothing works! Help?

Try to do a force restart -> Force restart iPhone – Apple Support (UK)


If it doesn't help, remove and reinsert the SIM card.

If it doesn't help contact your carrier, maybe the SIM card is damaged, ask for a replaced (new) card. Normally it is free.

Ask to check if the SIM tray is bent, as even a tiny misalignment can cause the SIM card to not fully connect with the internal contacts in your iPhone.
