Why does Settings.app make reference to requiring a SIM card for the Auto Call setting of Emergency SOS, and not for the entire feature altogether? When navigating to Settings/Emergency SOS on my iPhone 11 Pro, below the "Auto Call" control the hint states that "Auto Call requires a SIM card". I'm trying to establish why this text wouldn't be displayed when referencing the entire Emergency SOS feature; surely a SIM is also required if simply sliding the Emergency SOS slider to call the Emergency Services too?
Emergency numbers can be called without a SIM card in may countries &amp; many phones, including iPhones are designed to allow this, even from a locked screen.
All other numbers need a valid SIM, active account etc etc.
