Safe Mode isn't something that meant to be accessed regularly, so it's quite understandable that the function is stuck behind a pretty convoluted method. If you want to access Safe Mode, you have to power down your phone completely. Once you are in safe mode, your phone will clearly display a "Safe Mode" badge in a black box on the bottom-left corner of the screen, which is always visible. Additionally, a notification arrives, that tells you that your phone is in Safe Mode.

So what is actually different when your phone is in Safe Mode, yes this is a question that matters. In safe mode you won't have access to any app that wasn't loaded on the phone by default. For example any app that you downloaded from the Google Play Store normally works perfectly well but in safe mode, the same app will show up as not installed. If you are using Samsung, it shows an app icon with an SDcard on it to indicate that an app is uninstalled. This sign has nothing to do with your actual SDcard. All other apps that were pre-installed on the phone will continue to function uninterrupted.
