Not able to use the New Satellite feature on my iPhone 15 plus I have a iPhone 15 Plus, iOS 18. Haven’t updated to iOS 18.01. I tried to use or test the new Satellite feature on my iPhone outside of my house, cause there isn’t very good WiFi or Cellular coverage outside in my neighborhood. I just wanted to test just the iMessages via Satellite part not the sos Emergency via Satellite part. I tried messaging my spouse from outside of our house to his phone inside of our house. I don’t think it worked? in the control center the satellite icon is there, BUT it says it’s not available (see my image), and when I tap on the Satellite button and choose the up or down button all I get is the “try Demo” I did use the demo and it kind of works in the demo (can’t use iMessage) note: my husband has an iPhone 15, How Do I actually use the Satellite feature? I already read the instructions on how use the Satellite features But I’m still not able to access the Satellite feature, there is no Satellite picture image above my iMessage app when I sent a message to my husband. The Cellular is turned off, do I need to turn off my WiFi too? even when I have the Cellular turned off the Satellite still says not available.

Why is my iPhone 16 Pro receiving messages in flight mode? I recently bought an iPhone 16 Pro and noticed that I keep receiving text messages even when the phone is in flight mode. Why is this happening? I never had this issue with the iPhone 13 or 14. [Re-Titled by Moderator]
