NTT DoCoMo and KDDI issue reminders that when dual SIM is used on iPhone, it is sometimes impossible to issue an emergency notification (110swap 118bank 119). It is reported that there is no similar problem with the Android terminal.

【ご注意】本現象は110番/118番/119番の緊急通報に関わるものになります。個人で状況を確認しようとしたり、問題の再現を試みたりすることはお控えください。

The reminders of the two companies are roughly the same, and in an environment where lines are used in multiple SIM card eSIM using dual SIM function, if a dedicated SIM line for data communication that cannot make voice calls is set to a line for "mobile data communication", sometimes messages cannot be sent to emergency agencies.
