How do you disable emergency sos. I’ve tried absolutely everything there is no option to turn it off. It turned on by itself. I need to use my phone asap.

Try this:

Remove and reinsert the SIM card.

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

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.


Check also ->  Go to setting - Emegency SOS -> turn Off the options.
