Even if you turn on airplane mode on the device?
- md_ 3y agoBeats me. I can't find anything definitive on this. Since Apple devices continue to broadcast Find My signals even when powered off (as long as they have a little bit of battery left), I assume they continue to do so in airplane mode. It wouldn't do a lot of good if thieves could just turn off Bluetooth, right?
- idle_zealot 3y agoAirplane mode doesn't turn Bluetooth or Wifi off at all on recent OS versions of Android or iOS.
- master-lincoln 3y agoreally? Why did they even leave the feature in then?
- joseda-hg 3y agoIt turns off celular which is the main problem (Wifi is common enough in modern airplanes so I have to assume the interference risk is low, same for Bluetooth)
- grotorea 3y agoReally? What's airplane mode even for then?
- idle_zealot 3y agoIt disables cell data and calling.
