Emergency Calls
If iPhone is locked with a passcode, you may still be able to make an emergency call.
Make an emergency call when iPhone is locked: On the Enter Passcode screen, tap
Emergency Call, then dial the number using the numeric keypad.
Important: Only emergency numbers valid in the country or region where you’re
making the call will work. In some countries or regions, you can’t make emergency
calls unless your SIM card is installed and activated, and the SIM PIN has been correctly
entered or turned o.
In the U.S., location information (if available) is provided to emergency service
providers when you dial 911.
Important: You should not rely on wireless devices for essential communications, such
as medical emergencies. Use of any cellular phone to call emergency services may
not work in all locations. Emergency numbers and services vary by country or region,
and sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due to network availability or
environmental interference. Some cellular networks may not accept an emergency call
from iPhone if it doesn’t have a SIM card, if you locked your SIM card, or if you haven’t
activated your iPhone. If you’re on a FaceTime video call, you must end that call before
you can call an emergency number.
Visual Voicemail
On iPhone, visual voicemail lets you see a list of your messages and choose which ones
to listen to or delete, without having to listen to instructions or prior messages.
Note: Visual voicemail may not be available in all countries or regions, or may be an
optional service. Contact your carrier for more information. If visual voicemail isn’t
available, tap Voicemail and follow the voice prompts to retrieve your messages.

voicemail messages appears on the
Home screen Phone icon.
