According to Apple, the free trial will be extended to iPhone 14 users who activated their device via satellite before 12 am PT (1:30 am IST) on November 15, 2023, in a country that supports Emergency SOS Is. Emergency SOS via satellite is currently available in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, UK and US.
