    Is the satellite function free to use? I haven’t read into it and it’s super convenient for its use cases but also seems like it would cost a lot to maintain contracts and backend for the feature.

      Yes, it is free. But the only thing you can use it for is contacting emergency services.

          TLDR. There’s no pricing after 2 years yet.

          Probably get 2 years with every phone purchase. I’d have no problem subscribing to it regardless.

          I have a family and little kids. I’d never even consider not paying for a service like that if it could save our lives.

              I would think it would be nominal.

              Stories like this are marketing gold and all it would take is one “Apple charges $$$ per year and we decided not to pay it so all of my kids died” story to ruin all of those warm fuzzies.
