Why Android phones have airplane mode: which is very important to know
What is the airplane mode of Android?
Airplane mode is a setting that resides in almost all smartphones, laptops, and similar devices. When you activate it, the Airplane mode will stop sending all kinds of signals to your phone. While this mode is on, you will see an airplane icon in the status bar of the phone.
What is the function of airplane mode?
Airplane mode disables all types of wireless functions on your phone. Which contains-
* Bluetooth: Bluetooth is a very limited range of connections, allowing your phone to be connected to speakers, headphones, and more. Airplane mode keeps it inactive.
* Mobile Connection: You will not be able to make calls, send text messages or use mobile data for internet access.
* Wi-Fi: Your phone will disable all existing Wi-Fi connections and will not be connected to any new Wi-Fi connection.
Can Wi-Fi be used in airplane mode?
The answer depends on your device. However, most modern phones offer Wi-Fi access, despite the phone being in airplane mode. Wi-Fi will be turned off automatically when you turn on airplane mode. But you can manually turn on Wi-Fi again.
While Airplane mode is on, click on the Wi-Fi option from Quick Settings. Wi-Fi will turn on in a few seconds and connect if your phone allows.
Airplane mode saves battery?
Yes, Airplane mode definitely helps protect the battery life of your device. Different radio waves require a lot of power from the phone, such as notification of various apps via Wi-Fi, communication with Bluetooth devices, communication with mobile towers, location checking, etc. All this work consumes the battery power of the phone, the airplane mode deactivates everything at once, so the battery power of the phone is greatly saved. Since your phone is not busy in airplane mode, the phone can be charged faster in this mode.
Many airlines now have in-flight Wi-Fi service, so you can enjoy this feature. If unsure, check with the flight attendant before connecting to Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is only allowed on the plane at tens of thousands of feet. So be careful to turn off Wi-Fi during flight takeoff and landing. Even after landing.
How does airplane mode help in playing games?
Airplane mode can help if you like playing games on the phone but are annoyed by the ads. Because it disables Internet connection, ads will not be displayed while playing games in airplane mode. However, this will not work for games that are always played online. So you can play any offline game of your choice in airplane mode.
Does Bluetooth work in airplane mode?
The same is true of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Although Bluetooth is automatically disabled when airplane mode is turned on, most phones can be manually turned on again. Airlines are not too concerned about Bluetooth, as its range is very limited.
By turning on Bluetooth, you can connect Bluetooth headphones, keyboards, and similar devices to your smartphone. Even when you're not flying, you can save battery by enjoying offline music with Bluetooth headphones in airplane mode.
Can data be used in airplane mode?
No. This is because airplane mode prevents your phone from being connected to the mobile network tower. So you can't use any kind of data in this mode.
Will there be calls or messages on the phone in airplane mode?
No, because the mobile connection is turned off in airplane mode. If someone calls you while your phone is in airplane mode, the phone will ring off. And the text message of that time will come immediately after turning off the airplane mode.
Does the phone alarm work in airplane mode?
Yes. The alarm will be normal even in airplane mode. An alarm does not depend on an internet connection. Make sure to set the alarm by turning on the alarm app. Although the Internet cannot be used in airplane mode, Google Assistant can set alarms for you via voice commands.
