iPhone 11 keeps losing cellular service. I have restarted it and reset network settings and still will lose cell service all the time.

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 visit your carrier, maybe the SIM card is damaged, ask for a replaced (new) card. Normally it is free.

Ask also 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.


If it doesn't help, see these Apple articles below:
