Why did my iPhone 14 go into SOS mode spontaneously and how do I prevent that?
iPhone 14 went into SOS mode spontaneously and disconnected my call, why did it happen and how do I prevent that from happening again?
iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 17
SOS means that your phone has lost the connection to your cellular network provider. This is often caused by a temporary outage or "blip" at your carrier.
A few weeks ago, a major U.S. carrier had a massive outage on their network, which affected millions of users. It happens.
You don't indicate whether the phone is still displaying SOS or it has returned to normal.
If it is still displaying SOS you will need to use another phone to contact your carrier so they can check things from their end of the network.
