We have had one for probably 5 plus years
As you say
Set it up facing the sats
Then BT with your phone via the app
From memory you can have four phones using the connection simultaneously ?
Optus casual plan $15 a month and can stop start any number of times with just a phone call.
The way it is set up is the number is “seen” by other phones as a Normal mobile number
So if you call and hang up from the sat to your contact so they know a call is on and they then call you back you can talk for $0 (assuming like most mobile plans your contacts calls to mobiles are free)
Call price isn’t too ugly and txt from memory is 50c
There is an SOS button on the device which will connect you through to emergency contact without having to hook into BT etc
For our use it has been perfect for boat trips out beyond reception and bush trips
