Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to methods and user interfaces for establishing communications. In response to detecting user input corresponding to a request to initiate a communication via a computer system, the computer system displays a first user interface. When a terrestrial wireless communication network is not reachable by the computer system, the first user interface includes a respective selectable communication option that, when selected via one or more input devices, initiates a process for communicating via a non-terrestrial communication network. When a respective terrestrial communication network is reachable by the computer system, the computer system initiates a process for communication via the respective terrestrial communication network without displaying the respective selectable communication option on the first user interface.
