47. A method, comprising:
at a computer system that is in communication with a display generation component and one or more input devices:
detecting, via the one or more input devices, a user input corresponding to a request to initiate a communication via the computer system; and
in response to detecting the user input, displaying, via the display generation component, a first user interface, including:
displaying, in the first user interface, a cancel communication option that, when selected via the one or more input devices, initiates a process to stop attempting to initiate the communication;
in accordance with a determination that a terrestrial wireless communication network is not reachable by the computer system, displaying a respective selectable communication option that, when selected via the one or more input devices, initiates a process for communicating via a non-terrestrial wireless communication network; and
in accordance with a determination that a respective terrestrial wireless communication network is reachable by the computer system, initiating a process for communicating, via the respective terrestrial wireless communication network, without displaying the respective selectable communication option.
