NEW YORK (AP) — Customers of AT&T, the country's largest wireless provider, reported widespread outages on Thursday.
Some AT&T customers saw SOS messages displayed in the status bar on their cellphones. The message indicates that the device is having trouble connecting to their cellular provider’s network.
That can be a big problem in an emergency. AT&T urged customers to connect to Wi-Fi to use their phones.
Wi-Fi calling is a built-in feature on most Android devices and iPhones and can be turned on under the phone's settings.
